Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has stated that the United States will not achieve its goals through economic pressure, according to local media reports. He asserted that Iran's economic sectors have prepared for such measures and that America's pressure tactics will fail, just as they did in war. The comments come after US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced plans for the 'economic asphyxiation' of Iran, warning of consequences for non-compliant countries. Iranian leaders have dismissed the impact of new sanctions, citing decades of enduring crippling measures since the 1979 revolution.
