South Africa faced an almost universal official embargo on oil, although it never had problems arranging oil imports through third parties. Most Arab states continue to embargo exports of oil to Israel. Consuming nations have embargoed oil imports: The United States, for example, refuses to purchase oil from Iran. These embargoes have been adopted to pressure foreign governments to change policies, such as apartheid in South Africa, or, in some instances, to precipitate a change in government. In this section, we review the successes and failures of oil embargoes to influence foreign policy decisions by consuming nations.” For more see: Keith Crane, Andreas Goldthau, Michael Toman, Thomas Light, Stuart E.
