US President Donald Trump declared that the United States would be targeting Iran with “the most crushing economic operation ever taken against any country” in a Truth Social post on Wednesday.
“This will be an ECONOMIC D-DAY,” Trump announced, adding that the US needed all its allies to aid in isolating Iran.
Trump also announced that any country which provided aid to Iran would face “TREMENDOUS Economic Consequences.”
“Oil smuggling, swap lines, cash transfers, exchange houses, ship registries, front companies – It all needs to stop NOW,” Trump wrote. “You know who you are.”
