'All Iranian airlines will be shut down around the world': Bessent threatens secondary sanctions against foreign airports, fuel suppliers

Wait 5 sec.

United States Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warned Iranian airlines face international shutdown. Foreign companies providing services risk secondary sanctions and exclusion from the dollar system. This action escalates economic pressure on Tehran's aviation sector. Iran's airlines already face significant restrictions due to prior US sanctions. Discussions with China are ongoing regarding compliance with these new measures.
