U.S. to Impose 'Toughest Ever' Sanctions on Iran
The United States is set to announce new sanctions on Iran on Monday, August 24, described as the 'toughest in history' by U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. Iran has dismissed the threat, with Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi calling the move a sign of U.S. 'desperation'. Pakistan's army chief is scheduled to visit Tehran as a mediator.14 sourcesSee all sources
