Donald Trump claimed the United States has militarily defeated Iran and that the Iranian regime informed Washington they are in a state of defense. This follows recent threats and statements from U.S. World Bank predictions suggest a potential rise in prices if the conflict in Ukraine continues beyond May. Tehran stated that the United States is no longer able to dictate policy to other nations. The blockade aims to target the Iranian treasury and significantly impact the country's economic infrastructure.
