US President-elect Donald Trump's administration is preparing to reinstate its 'maximum pressure' strategy against Iran, targeting Tehran's economic stability and its ability to support militant proxies and nuclear development. The administration plans to impose stricter sanctions, particularly on Iran's oil exports, which serve as a critical revenue source. The anticipated sanctions could drastically reduce Iranian oil exports, severely impacting Iran's economy. The renewed strategy aims to bring Iran back to the negotiating table for a comprehensive nuclear deal, but experts express skepticism about Tehran agreeing to stringent US terms. Iranian officials have already rejected the possibility of resuming negotiations under coercion.
