Donald Trump Bessent: US Blockade Chokes Iran Oil — Sanctions Intensify

U.S. forces and Treasury have tightened a campaign to choke Iran’s oil revenue: a naval blockade, public VHF warnings, and sweeping secondary sanctions targeting ships, brokers and banks. A 30‑day waiver for at‑sea cargoes ends April 19. Washington is pressuring buyers and intermediaries—threatening to cut access to the U.S. financial system—to halt seaborne exports. The move raises market, diplomatic and humanitarian risks as Iran’s shadow networks test enforcement.
