Analysis: Trump's Tactics to Increase Iran Pressure
The United States, the United Nations, and the European Union have imposed a series of sanctions on Iran, including trade bans and asset freezes, since the late 1970s due to its nuclear program, human rights violations, and support for armed groups. Since the outbreak of war in February, sanctions on the maritime, energy, and financial sectors have been intensified, leading to the freezing of approximately $500 billion in cryptocurrency linked to Iran. Possible options include former President Trump's administration imposing sanctions on independent Chinese refineries that purchase more than 80% of Iranian oil, as well as secondary sanctions on Chinese and Hong Kong entities involved in financing arms purchases, with the potential use of a comprehensive land blockade and increased tariffs to pressure Iran further. Experts warn that these sanctions might lead to the creation of new entities and produce limited results.
