According to CoinMeta, US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin stated that the Iranian leadership is feeling economic pressure, and the Trump administration's most aggressive pressure tactics are considered effective. Mnuchin pointed out that the Iranian leadership's candid remarks indicate that shortages, weak domestic production, and limited financial activities have become difficult to ignore. The Treasury Department will continue to target the sources of income and financial lifelines that support the Iranian regime, which may lead to additional sanctions and stricter enforcement, while also increasing the risk of geopolitical escalation. On the market side, these comments keep Iran and its potential impact on crude oil supply and shipping routes under attention.
