Bennett: Economic War on Iran to Be as Forceful as D-Day Landing, No More Need for 'Large-Scale' Military Action

BlockBeats News, August 24th. U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen confirmed that on the 24th, the specific actions of the "unprecedented economic isolation" measures against Iran will be officially announced. Yellen wrote in the UK's Financial Times that we are entering the final stage. At dawn, an economic "D-Day" against Iran is about to arrive — the largest financial offensive ever launched against a hostile force in history.

Yellen also threatened that any country providing financial support to this crumbling regime should expect to face the same isolation. Yellen stated that the U.S.'s goal will be to sever every economic lifeline that supports the Iranian regime until Tehran is isolated and helpless. Previously, according to signals released by Yellen, the U.S. will use all enforcement tools to implement secondary sanctions on countries and companies that continue to engage in business with Iran, focusing on three categories of economic activities:

purchasing Iranian oil, transferring money to Iran, and engaging in ship-to-ship transfers of Iranian oil. It is worth noting that when explaining the relevant sanctions measures, Yellen intentionally added a sentence: No "large-scale" military action is expected to be needed anymore.
