AI Summary

medium article 2 min

In January 2026, US President Donald Trump announced a 25% tariff on any country conducting business with Iran. The decision, communicated via social media, aims to economically pressure Iran amid ongoing anti-government protests and riots. While the specific countries impacted remain unclear, major economies like Russia, China, Brazil, and Türkiye, along with Iraq and the UAE, are significant trading partners with Iran. This action follows increased pressure from the Trump administration on Tehran, including threats of military strikes if Iran does not comply with US demands regarding its nuclear and military programs. The US previously bombed Iranian nuclear facilities in June 2025.
