ExxonMobil has denied reports it has been lobbying the US Government on Iran sanctions.
The company issued a statement in which its vice president of Public and Government Affairs said the reports regarding the matter were “inaccurate”.
Ken Cohen said:”Media reports that ExxonMobil is lobbying the U.S. government on Iran sanctions are inaccurate.
“ExxonMobil is not lobbying on Iran sanctions,’ said Ken Cohen, vice president of Public and Government Affairs.
“Erroneous media reports resulted from errors in a consultant’s lobbying disclosures. Current US law prohibits American companies from operating in Iran.”
