Washington Focuses on Economy Over Diplomacy

The article discusses the Trump-led U.S. administration's strategy of intensifying economic pressure on Iran instead of resorting to military operations. The report focuses on a campaign known as "Economical Landing Day," which aims to isolate Iran economically by forcing its trading partners to choose between doing business with the U.S. market or with Iran. Targeting China, Iran's largest oil importer, is a central element of this strategy; Beijing has been importing about 1.5 million barrels per day despite sanctions, continuing to buy around 823,000 barrels in July, taking advantage of discounted prices. It is believed that disrupting Iran's commercial network could be more effective than military actions; however, the success of this approach is not guaranteed, as it involves exerting pressure on U.S. allies, potentially leading to broader confrontations. The White House is betting that choking Iran’s funding sources might succeed in prompting a change in its behavior, based on the idea that sanctions remain the most impactful tool in addressing the challenges between the two sides.
