US President-elect Donald Trump’s team wants to ruin Iran. For this purpose, a new plan of ‘maximum pressure’ has been developed, according to the Financial Times.
According to the agency’s sources, the new Trump administration will resume its policy of “maximum pressure” to “bankrupt” Iran and its ability to finance the development of nuclear weapons.
Moreover, the agency’s anonymous sources noted that Trump’s foreign policy team will seek to tighten sanctions against Tehran, including vital oil exports, as soon as the president-elect returns to the White House.
A national security expert familiar with Trump’s plans stated that he was determined to resume the maximum pressure strategy to cripple Iran as soon as possible.
‘Maximum pressure’ Trump’s plan
The agency noted that this plan would mark a change in US foreign policy in a period of turmoil in the Middle East after the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023, provoked a wave of regional hostilities and brought Israel’s shadow war with Iran into the open.
At the same time, during his election campaign, Trump signaled that he wanted to make a deal with Iran.
He stated then that a deal needed to be made because the consequences would be impossible to bear.
Trump’s position on Iran
Earlier this year, an Israeli journalist wrote that future US President Donald Trump has a vested interest in Israel launching a devastating strike against Iran.
According to him, the newly elected president wants the war in the Middle East to end before his inauguration.
