The @USTreasury continues our Economic Fury campaign against the Iranian regime. Their troops are not getting paid, the police are not reporting for work, and Kharg Island is shut down. The Iranian economy and currency are in free fall. Iran’s Persian Gulf Strait Authority (PGSA) is a joke, and today Treasury has sanctioned it. We have warned any corporate or state entities against paying tolls or hiding them as aid payments. Forming a Wall of Steel, the U.S. Naval Blockade has ensured a record low amount of Iranian crude on the water. We will also be shutting down both Iranian airlines’ access to landing spots, refueling, and ticket sales. Only a satisfactory outcome in negotiations will end the downward spiral.

Another sign of the need to shift focus towards enforcement and circumvention, working with partner countries to prevent trade from fuelling the Russian war in Ukraine...
A document shows that in 2022, Armenia imported 515 percent more chips and processors from the U.S. and 212 percent more from the E.U. than in 2021. Armenia then exported 97 percent of those same products to Russia. nyti.ms/3LaLbZ8
