The Latest: Trump Warns of ‘Economic D-Day’ Against Iran Days Before 6-Month Mark of War
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said secondary sanctions could hit companies and nations doing business with Iran, including major oil buyers China and India.
- President Donald Trump is touting an "economic D-Day" against Tehran, with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent labeling the strategy "Operation Economic Fury" to force Iran to end its nuclear program and reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
- Nearing the six-month mark of the Iran war, the administration is shifting from recent airstrikes to a crushing financial campaign. Iran has withstood nearly five decades of American sanctions, raising questions about strategy effectiveness.
- Bessent threatened secondary sanctions on nations conducting business with Iran, specifically targeting major oil buyers China and India. The United Arab Emirates suspended trade with Tehran following an alleged missile attack, further isolating the government.
- Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi dismissed the threats as a "diversion from America's own crisis: unprecedented debt and surging interest costs." Ali Vaez of The International Crisis Group warned the regime views surrendering to American terms as more dangerous than suffering sanctions.
- Richard Goldberg of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies described the strategy as creating a "perfect storm" for potential regime change, yet cautioned the administration is operating in "uncharted waters" regarding financial warfare effectiveness.
