The article discusses the United States imposing new sanctions on an Iranian bank as part of its efforts to pressure Iran and undermine its economic activities. U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen confirmed that the sanctions will target an Iranian bank later this week, with additional sanctions on another bank to be announced next week. She mentioned that Washington is in talks with its allies to secure their support for these measures. She also clarified that the U.S. is considering targeting aircraft leasing companies and other entities dealing with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, and that it is monitoring the Guard's assets worldwide, including their real estate accounts in the Virgin Islands, which will be frozen. The sanctions aim to completely strangle the Iranian economy, and discussions are ongoing with China to prevent Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons, along with efforts to ensure freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.
