US Treasury Secretary Scott Besant has announced the launch of a new economic campaign against Iran on August 24. America has said that it wants to increase pressure on Iran's oil earnings, financial networks and other economic routes. Under the new steps, about 60 people, institutions and ships have been targeted. The US has also warned other countries and companies that they could risk being locked out of the US financial system if they continue doing business with Iran.
Iran is already facing US sanctions for a long time. The new restrictions have come at a time when the country's economy is under pressure from inflation and currency weakness. America's new campaign is to further isolate Iran from the international financial system.
