A Trump playbook for ‘maximum pressure’ on Iran
Iran is conducting a two-month-long military drill amid economic challenges and the anticipated return of President-elect Donald Trump, who is expected to renew pressure on the country.
The drills include testing air defenses near a nuclear facility and naval exercises in critical waterways, signaling Iran's intent to demonstrate military strength.
French President Emmanuel Macron described Iran as a significant security challenge, noting the acceleration of its nuclear program as a critical concern.
Mike Pompeo stated that the Trump administration will revive the maximum pressure campaign against Iran, predicting it will lead to the regime's downfall.
