14 An additional argument, to the effect that dollar transactions, wherever based, are recorded through debit and credit entries in New York for the accounts of foreign banks or foreign branches of New York banks, falls away when the issue is application of the regulations to sterling or Deutschmarks or whatever other currency. In fact new dollar deposits of U.S. banks held abroad were unblocked shortly after the initial freeze order. See 31 C.F.R.§ 535.666.

15 To the contrary, Barclays is subject to the Regulations in such a case; i.e., jurisdiction has been asserted. However, as with foreign deposits, U.S.-held dollar “cover” for dollar deposits held for Iran and Iranian entities by foreign banks has been unblocked by general license. See 31 CFR § 535.901.
