US: We will impose the harshest sanctions in history on Iran

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the United States would impose the harshest sanctions in history on Iran, noting that Iran’s economic isolation would lead to the collapse of the regime. Speaking to CNBC News, Bessent added that he would hold a press conference on Monday to reveal details of the measures, pointing out that Washington controls the Strait of Hormuz, through which large volumes of oil pass. The Treasury secretary called on U.S. allies and countries around the world to cease dealings with the Iranian regime, emphasizing that the economic isolation of Iran would be the largest in history. This comes as U.S. President Donald Trump announced a new economic campaign against Iran, warning countries that provide it with financial or commercial support of severe economic consequences.
