Sec. Bessent: Let Me Be Clear, Any Entity That Facilitates Money Laundering on Behalf of Iran, ‘Will Be Removed from the U.S. Dollar System’

‘The clock just started ticking’

EXCERPT:

BESSENT: “Teams from the Treasury, State Department, and the U.S. military are now meeting with their global counterparts to tell them that the United States expects action. Every country has a defined timeline to shut down activities we have identified. If they do not take action, we will do so unilaterally through Treasury authorities. For example, every Bank Melli branch must be shuttered and dark. And let me be clear: any entity that facilitates money laundering on behalf of Iran will be removed from the U.S. dollar system.”
