From The Times of India comes this wonderful tidbit of irrelevance:
US ordered to halt 'humanitarian' Iran sanctions in blow for Donald Trump
THE HAGUE: The UN's top court ordered the United States on Wednesday to suspend sanctions on "humanitarian" goods for Iran in a stunning setback for US President Donald Trump.
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) handed down the bombshell judgement after Iran asked it to halt economic measures that Trump reimposed after pulling out of a landmark nuclear deal with Tehran.
Judges in The Hague unanimously ruled that the sanctions on some goods breached a 1955 "friendship treaty" between Iran and the US that predates Iran's Islamic Revolution.
"The court finds unanimously that... the United States of America... shall remove by means of its choosing any impediments arising from the measures announced on 8 May to the free exportation to Iran of medicines and medical devices, food and agricultural commodities" as well as airplane parts, chief judge Abdulqawi Ahmed Yusuf said.
