What is the goal of the US maximum pressure campaign against Iran?
The US maximum pressure campaign against Iran aims to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons by cutting its oil exports down to zero. This campaign was reinstated by US President Donald Trump and is supported by key figures like Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. By targeting Iran's primary source of revenue through oil sanctions, the US hopes to deprive the Iranian regime of the financial resources needed to develop nuclear capabilities, effectively halting their nuclear ambitions.
