PARIS (Reuters) - A project to export cattle to Iran from Normandy in northern France has been halted due to the United States' renewed sanctions against Tehran, a French Senator said, as Washington's policy takes its toll on its European allies.

The sanctions, following U.S. President Donald Trump's withdrawal from an international accord on Iran's nuclear programme, took effect on Tuesday. They have led many European companies to back out of investments in Iran, including French energy giant Total and car maker Peugeot.
