Trump's Renewed 'Maximum Pressure' Strategy Targets Iran

Donald Trump's incoming administration plans to reinstate a 'maximum pressure' strategy on Iran, aiming to bankrupt its ability to fund regional proxies and develop nuclear weapons. This approach involves increasing sanctions, particularly on oil exports, to force Iran into negotiations for a new nuclear deal. The strategy marks a shift in U.S. foreign policy amid heightened Middle East tensions following recent hostilities involving Israel and Iran. While Iran's new government expresses willingness to negotiate, experts doubt the feasibility of a deal acceptable to both Iran and Israel.
