US Launches Economic Campaign Against Iranian Regime with 'Operation Economic Outcast'
The US Department of the Treasury has launched an unprecedented economic campaign against the Iranian regime, dubbed Operation Economic Outcast. The operation aims to sever Iran's financial lifelines and cut off all sources of revenue that sustain the regime.
According to Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent, President Trump has taken action to target the Iranian threat, no longer managing it but ending it instead. Bessent stated, 'Our objective is to sever every economic lifeline that sustains this tyrannical regime until Tehran stands alone.'
The Treasury has identified networks, facilitators, and financial channels used by Iran to smuggle oil, evade sanctions, and fund terror. With the help of international partners, the US will be uncompromising in targeting any source of the regime's illicit revenue.
