一句话看懂
Trump announced the 'most crushing economic operation ever' against Iran, threatening 'tremendous economic consequences' for any country aiding Tehran. The move escalates economic pressure after military strikes failed to bring.
背景
The US has been at war with Iran since February, with military strikes failing to force Tehran to negotiate. The war has closed the Strait of Hormuz, a key oil shipping route, since early March. Trump's new economic campaign aims to isolate Iran's economy through sanctions and a naval blockade, targeting countries that continue to do business with Iran, potentially including China, Iran's biggest trading partner.
