Sputnik News- The United State should impose additional sanctions on Iran specifically targeting the Revolutionary Guards Corps, Speaker of the House Paul Ryan said in a speech to the American-Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC).

Ryan said the US government should also target Iran�s main airlines to�halt them from�allegedly transporting troops and weapons to�other countries in�the Middle East.

"We should expand sanctions on�Iran's army of�terror�� the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps," Ryan said on�Monday. "I think we should designate them as�a terrorist organization."

"We should take steps to�prevent Iranian airlines like�Iran Air [the flagship air carrier of�the Islamic Republic]� from�delivering troops and weapons across�the Middle East," Ryan added.

Ryan criticized the Obama administration�s agreement to�lift all international economic sanctions on�Iran in�the context of�the six plus one nuclear agreement in�2015 as�an unmitigated disaster.
