Trump threatens Iran’s remaining trade routes, exposing a handful of countries

CNBC says the impact would concentrate among a small set of governments that account for most of Iran’s remaining foreign trade.

Washington’s threat of an expanded economic squeeze on Iran is colliding with the fact that only a small group of countries account for most of what remains of Iran’s foreign trade, according to CNBC.

CNBC Frames the situation as a potential turning point for Iran’s trade lifelines, with exposure concentrated in those relatively limited partner countries rather than spread evenly across the global economy.
