Bessent says the U.S. is unlikely to restart large-scale Iran combat

Reported · Written up by our desk · Trade & Tariffs

CNBC Markets reports that U.S. Treasury Secretary nominee Scott Bessent said the United States is unlikely to restart large-scale combat with Iran as Washington steps up economic pressure. According to the outlet, President Donald Trump and Bessent unveiled the economic operation nearly six months into the Iran war, which continues without a clear end in sight.

CNBC World relayed the same account, linking the administration’s approach to a sustained campaign focused on economic pressure rather than renewed large-scale military action.
