The White House announced 'Operation Economic Outcast,' described as an effort to cut off remaining economic support for Iran following what the administration calls its dismantling of Iran's military and nuclear capabilities. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent detailed the campaign in a Financial Times op-ed, calling it 'the single greatest financial offensive ever marshalled against an adversary' and an 'economic D-Day.'
The release states the objective is to sever every economic lifeline sustaining the Iranian government until it 'stands alone.' It repeats the administration's long-standing position that Iran cannot be allowed to obtain a nuclear weapon, framing the new sanctions push as fulfillment of that goal.
