President Donald Trump has announced that his administration is considering imposing secondary tariffs on Iran to pressure Tehran into negotiating a new nuclear deal. He warned that if diplomacy fails, military action, including large-scale bombing, remains an option.
The announcement follows Iran’s rejection of direct negotiations with the U.S., citing distrust after Washington’s withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear agreement. However, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian indicated that indirect talks could still be possible.
The escalating tensions have raised concerns about global economic stability, with investors closely watching the potential impact of new tariffs on international markets.
