US President Donald Trump has launched an economic war against Iran, warning the world to cut off all economic ties with Iran, including oil smuggling, or face major economic consequences.
Trump said in his statement that we want allies to stand with us, this will be an unprecedented scale of economic warfare and an act of isolation against Iran.
He said that he is announcing the most devastating economic action against Iran ever taken against any country.
The US president said that any country that allows its financial institutions, businesses, etc. to provide any kind of ‘lifeline’ to Iran will also face severe economic consequences.
According to the news agency, Trump did not clarify what specific measures would be taken against any country that provides economic assistance to Iran, nor did he name any country.
It should be noted that Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi contacted Field Marshal Seyyed Asim Munir by telephone and discussed efforts to find a political and diplomatic solution to the issues.
