ABC: Trump administration may increase sanctions against Iran
The authorities of the United States of America are considering the possibility of strengthening sanctions against Iran amid protests in the republic. This was reported by ABC TV channel with reference to a senior US official.
He noted that Washington is considering new sanctions against key figures, the energy or banking sector of Iran as options to increase pressure on Tehran.
Let us remind you that rallies in Iran began at the end of December 2025, intensifying on January 8 after calls from Reza Pahlavi, the son of the Iranian Shah, overthrown in 1979. After that, the Internet disappeared in the republic.
It was previously reported that US Presidential Envoy Witkoff secretly met with Pahlavi.
