Trump Hits Iran With Sanctions And Tariffs Instead Of Bombs | India Today Global

Описание: The Trump administration escalated economic pressure on Iran through Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's announcement sanctioning 18 individuals and entities for evading oil sanctions and diverting energy revenues from Iranian citizens to regime elites. President Trump simultaneously imposed 25% tariffs on countries continuing business with Iran, framing protesters' demands as legitimate while warning corrupt leaders they will be tracked globally like "rats on a sinking ship" with an offer to defect. This maximum pressure campaign follows reports of halted protester executions, including 26-year-old Erfan Soltani, which Trump hailed as positive amid repositioned US forces like the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier group moving from South China Sea to the Middle East.

India activated contingency plans to evacuate approximately 10,000 citizens including students from Iran, learning from Russia-Ukraine and prior US-Israel strikes, with the embassy facing internet shutdown challenges. Jaishankar's recent call with counterpart Araghchi discussed ground situation as New Delhi advised citizens to stay vigilant and prepare documents. Iran's judiciary paused capital punishments amid Trump's earlier military threats now pivoting to economic squeeze, though Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warned against repeating June 2025 mistakes. Pro-regime rallies emerged alongside exiled Reza Pahlavi's calls for mass protests, while Ladakh saw pro-Khamenei demonstrations.

Tehran professor Foad Izadi described streets as stable after monarchist-Mossad operations failed to spark regime change, predicting heavy US retaliation costs including 500 soldier deaths across 10 regional bases if strikes occur.
