U.S. Launches Economic D-Day on Iran | Bakersfield News

The U.S. is launching a sweeping economic offensive against Iran, calling it an “economic D-day” aimed at collapsing the regime through maximum pressure — with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warning that any country doing business with Iran will face consequences. While military action is on hold, the administration believes economic sanctions can force Iran into a deal to prevent nuclear weapons. Iran dismisses the campaign as “economic terrorism,” while Vice President JD Vance calls it the most effective tool yet. Major allies like the UAE are cutting ties with Iran, while China says sanctions won’t work. The U.S. remains committed, even as global fallout and potential retaliation loom.
