Donald Trump was against Iran in his first term, and he will take office now knowing that Iranian agents planned to kill him.
US President Donald Trump is preparing for quick and tough measures against Iran after officially taking office as head of state.
according to WSJthe republicans are going to significantly increase sanctions against Tehran, mainly to cut off Iran’s oil revenues and thus limit its ability to support its proxies in the department.
Trump was an opponent of Iran during his first presidency. He continued with a strategy to put maximum pressure on the Iranian regime, hoping that this would force Tehran to abandon its plans to acquire nuclear weapons and stop supporting the terrorists in the Middle East.
Now Trump is in office knowing that Iranian agents were out to kill him. Last month, the media reported that the Iranian authorities were trying to assassinate Trump, blaming him for the death of IRGC General Qassem Soleimani in 2020.
According to the publication, the team of the elected president intends to act quickly on the issue of limiting Iran’s oil income. For this purpose, appropriate sanctions will be introduced. Chinese ports through which Iranian oil passes may be subject to American sanctions.
In addition, Iraqi officials who fund pro-Iranian groups in the Middle East could be banned.
Brian Hook, who was in charge of Iran affairs at the State Department during Trump’s first term, called the president-elect’s plans to “diplomatically isolate” and weaken Iran economically.
Earlier, Dialog.UA reported that Western analysts included Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian in the list of world leaders who will “lose” from Trump’s return to the White House. Observers believe that, under Trump, it is impossible to negotiate on Iran’s nuclear program, which Tehran has been counting on in the hope of reducing the pressure of sanctions on its economy.
