Trump warns of economic consequences for any country that supports Iran

The intensified economic pressure campaign comes as the war nears its sixth month with no immediate diplomatic or military off-ramp in sight and the vital Strait of Hormuz still significantly choked-off.

United States President Donald Trump has announced the “most crushing economic operation ever taken against any country” on Iran, as talks to end the more than five-month conflict between the two nations remain deadlocked.

Trump's latest move appears to extend the pressure campaign of Operation Economic Fury, launched in April to sanction foreign banks or firms that do business with Tehran.
