Iran pushed back on US President Donald Trump’s threat of an “economic D-Day,” calling it “a recipe for an abysmal return to full-scale classic colonialism.”
The US president had earlier threatened “the MOST CRUSHING ECONOMIC OPERATION” against Iran in a social media post on August 19.
He also warned there would be economic consequences for countries that continue to do business with Tehran.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry warned that those who order or implement the levies “are liable to prosecution and punishment,” reported state media IRIB.
