The United States plans to impose sanctions on another bank in the coming days in an attempt to stop transactions with Iran. The information was confirmed by the US Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent, in statements to the news agency Associated Press (AP).
Scott Bessent, who holds the position of US Treasury Secretary, revealed this intention directly to the Associated Press, without providing further details about which bank will be targeted by the new sanctions or exactly when they will be announced.
This measure is part of the context of ongoing tensions between the United States and Iran, with Washington adopting a maximum pressure posture against Tehran through financial and commercial restrictions.
The sanctions aim to make Iran's international financial transactions more difficult, further isolating the country economically and limiting its ability to conduct global banking operations.
