US vows 'strongest sanctions in history' on Iran
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo help a press conference stating that US is imposing the "strongest sanctions in history" on Iran. Along with President Trump withdraw from the landmark 2015 Iran nuclear deal, the secretary of defense said that Iran would be "battling to keep its economy alive" after sanctions took effect and the withdrawing from nuclear deal. He also said in the press conference that "unprecedented financial pressure on the Iranian regime", by saying this, Iran looks like so dependent on US before they withdraw from that deal and put the strongest sanctions. The sanction before it got tighter, it prohibited all the trade with Iran, basically the trade which will benefit Iranian people were strongly prohibited. However the secretary of state did not mention in the press conference how the newer sanction includes. Javad Zarif said on Twitter towards US, that "US is imprisoned by delusions & failed policies" and "Iran, meanwhile, is working with partners for post-US JCPOA solutions". It looks like there is an intense tension between Iran and US as of now concerning the nuclear deal, and the raise of sanctions.
