🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump is escalating pressure on Iran and using oil prices as leverage

If no ceasefire happens, the U.S. and Israel could target Iran’s energy infrastructure, including oil wells, power plants, and Kharg Island.

That’s the core of Iran’s economy.

At the same time, Trump is setting a deadline linked to the Strait of Hormuz.

Oil is already around $115.

Higher oil prices put pressure on countries that depend on Gulf energy, not just Iran.

This is being framed as a maximum-pressure move designed to force a response.
