Trump’s sanctions and Iran’s response
The United States has launched a significant wave of economic sanctions targeting Iran's financial connections, including restrictions on digital assets, technology, gold, and shipping. Tehran predicts it is prepared to counter these measures, which aim to restrict Iran’s oil exports and trade, especially via seaborne routes.

Iran faces difficult strategic choices, balancing potential concessions against the risk that sustained economic pressure could further weaken its position.
