U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent:

We will impose maximum pressure on Iran to cut off the oil supply chain and exports used by the Iranian regime to support terrorist proxies and partners. All refineries, companies, or intermediaries that choose to purchase Iranian oil or assist in Iran's oil trade will face severe risks. We are prepared to take all necessary measures to reduce Iran's energy exports to zero - they should have been zero - while ensuring the safety of the American people.

It's absolutely outrageous! While human civilization is evolving, it seems that some countries and individuals are regressing, returning from the civilized world to the age of barbarism.

You may prevent others from producing oil, but why punish all merchants who buy Iranian oil, including intermediaries?

Dressed in the guise of civilization, yet flowing with the blood of barbarians.
