Trump Set to Reinstate 'Maximum Pressure' Strategy on Iran
TL;DR
US President-elect Donald Trump plans to reinstate "maximum pressure" sanctions on Iran, targeting its oil income and support for terrorist groups, following a plot to assassinate him allegedly orchestrated by an Iranian operative. This move aims to replicate his first-term strategy of isolating Iran economically and diplomatically, as tensions between Iran and Israel have escalated with recent military actions. Trump's approach is influenced by Iran's perceived current position of weakness.
