Iran threatens to escalate its actions! NYT: Maximum economic pressure on Iran backfires as Bessent moves onto military base for safety
Published ・ Source Taiwan | 鉅亨網
Foreign media report that U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent, facing serious threats over his role in leading sanctions against Iran, has moved onto a military base for safety. The incident reflects escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran, forcing Washington to adjust its global security posture in response to Iranian retaliation.
Facts
U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent has left his residence in Washington and moved to a military base for protection.
Since August, Bessent has led the Trump administration's maximum economic pressure campaign against Iran.
At least 6 senior U.S. officials took similar measures last year, including White House Chief of Staff Miller.
The 2020 killing of Iranian general Soleimani by the U.S. military is the root of this security storm.
In 2024, the U.S. charged an Iranian Revolutionary Guard member with plotting to assassinate Trump.
About 240,000 H100, H200 and some A100 chips were reportedly brought into China through the relationship.

Neither war nor a foolish deal! U.S. media: Trump administration shifts to an indefinite economic strangulation campaign against Iran.
Published ・ Source Taiwan | 鉅亨網
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that the Trump administration was shifting its Iran policy to an indefinite economic strangulation campaign, ruling out both war and an agreement. The move aims to cut off Iran's funding, easing geopolitical risks and pushing oil prices lower, though markets remain cautious about the risk of a potential attack.
Facts
Speaking in Paris after attending a G7 foreign ministers' meeting, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the Trump administration had ruled out restarting a large-scale war or signing a “ridiculous deal” as options in its Iran policy, opting instead for an indefinite campaign of maximum economic strangulation.
Three people familiar with the matter told Axios that Rubio stressed Trump did not face only the choices of going to war or making concessions. The strategy's core was to cut off funding for Iran's support of regional armed groups and rebuilding of its military capabilities through sanctions and a naval blockade.
Rubio estimated that Iran's oil export revenues would dry up once the stockpiles of oil shipped onto the high seas during the brief June ceasefire—a period on which some of Iran's revenue depends—were sold off.
Tehran insists that the naval blockade be lifted first and that it be compensated for its losses, while Washington demands that Iran first stop attacks on commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz and make concessions on its nuclear program.
