Trump suggests sanctions on Chinese banks over Iran links
American President Donald Trump hinted at the possibility of imposing sanctions on Chinese banks due to their relationships with Iran, especially since China is Tehran's largest trading partner in the oil sector, and Chinese banks continue to process payments related to this trade. When asked about the likelihood of sanctions, Trump replied ambiguously: "Who said I won't do it?" However, so far, the U.S. Treasury has not imposed sanctions on major Chinese banks, despite having previously sanctioned companies accused of assisting Iran. These statements come as part of a US campaign to tighten sanctions on Iran, which includes expanding threats to impose secondary sanctions on countries that deal with Tehran, in an escalation aimed at increasing pressure on Iran.
