Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has unveiled a major new US sanctions package targeting Iran, expanding Washington’s economic pressure campaign against Tehran.
In this episode of Epic Fury: The US-Iran War Podcast, we examine Bessent’s “Economic D-Day” announcement, including new sanctions targeting Iran’s oil smuggling, shipping, technology, gold, aviation and digital assets. We break down what Washington actually announced, what was held back, and why the toughest financial measures may still be coming.
We also examine Iran’s response, China’s rejection of US pressure, the risk of secondary sanctions against Chinese banks and other trading partners, and what the latest measures could mean for Iran’s economy, oil markets and the wider war.
The episode also covers the latest developments around the Strait of Hormuz, Iranian oil exports, shipping risks, Iraq, Lebanon, Gaza, Qatar and the detained Iranian pilots, as well as the diplomatic efforts that could determine what happens next.
