sanctionsMiddle EastBloomberg3h ago
Context
The US military campaign against Iran has failed to force the regime to capitulate, so the Trump administration is relying on economic sanctions and a naval blockade to stifle oil exports. Bloomberg's Onur Ant explains what the challenges are, with some arguing that the regime is entrenched and that sanctions are unlikely to convince Iran to give up their nuclear program.
