The U.S. is ramping up economic pressure on Iran as its top weapon, with Vice President JD Vance calling it a “delicate dance” where Tehran feels more strain than Washington. Following Trump’s vow for the most severe economic campaign ever, Vance warns of financial penalties for nations helping Iran evade sanctions. He credits U.S. military efforts to reopen oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz for dropping prices — even as they remain high for Americans. Iran’s main leverage? Control of the strait — and Vance insists they’re being held accountable for attacks on commercial shipping. With Iran already weakened, Vance says the choice is clear: economic collapse or cooperation with the West — offering a path to recovery if they choose diplomacy over defiance.
