Trump launches unprecedented economic offensive against Iran
In the United States, President Donald Trump has announced a new economic offensive against Iran, warning of severe consequences for any country that provides support to Tehran. This initiative follows months of stalled diplomatic efforts and comes amid a conflict that has resulted in significant casualties and disruptions in global oil trade. The U.S. Treasury Secretary has described this as the 'endgame' against Iran, aiming to isolate the country economically. Despite these pressures, Iran has remained defiant, showing no signs of yielding to U.S. demands.
