PNG Minister Hardeep Singh Puri distanced himself from the issue of U.S. sanctions, announced by the U.S. Treasury last week, on eight firms, including an Indian company, Tibalaji Petrochem Pvt Ltd, for dealing in petrochemical products with Iran and violating American sanctions.
The minister, on a visit to Washington DC and Houston, characterised it as a private sector transaction caught up in sanctions.
