Iran Accuses US of Economic Blockade Threatening Its Population and Livelihoods
Iran has accused the United States of threatening its population through economic and naval blockades, describing US sanctions as 'economic terrorism' that endangers Iranian livelihoods. Iranian officials cited remarks by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio warning that economic pressure could force Iran to negotiate and that its oil revenues may eventually dry up. Tehran condemned these policies as repeated failed tactics and warned of a stronger response to any renewed US-Israel military actions.
