US Treasury Secretary's strong statement continues the Trump administration's policy of maximum pressure on Iran, similar to past actions of cutting off Iran's funding channels through financial sanctions.
On the capital front, the US quickly froze Iranian-related assets, interrupting the flow of funds to sanctioned entities, with the motive of using financial weapons to force Iran to make concessions in negotiations.
In the current context of US-Iran conflict, financial sanctions have become an important lever.
Essentially, this is a reconstruction of financial warfare: sanctions freeze and cut off the liquidity of Iran's overseas assets, shifting pricing power from Iran to the US-led financial system, with mechanisms based on control of infrastructure like the dollar and SWIFT, leading funds to long-term distance from sanctioned entities and concentrating them in compliant channels.
