Washington shifts policy on Tehran
The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump is moving toward tightening economic pressures on Iran, with negotiations currently frozen and disagreements escalating over the terms of any new agreement. Trump has called for halting talks with Iran and informed allies that he is extending sanctions, especially on oil trade and institutions that help Tehran bypass sanctions, in an attempt to pressure Iran into changing its stance before returning to negotiations. Washington believes these measures will increase pressure on Iran, while Tehran insists on its conditions for a settlement, such as the easing of sanctions, which has hindered the prospects of reaching a quick agreement.
