Iran Adopts New Strategy to Counter Intensified US Economic SanctionsPreviousNext

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian announced that Tehran has adopted a new strategy to manage intensified US economic sanctions targeting its financial and commercial networks. He accused the US of attempting to cut off Iran's vital economic lifelines but said public support and government measures have prevented these efforts from succeeding. Meanwhile, tensions persist in the region with attacks near Saudi Arabia and ongoing conflict in Yemen. The US continues its sanctions campaign, including Operation Economic Outcast, aimed at restricting Iran's economic resources.
