On August 24, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced possible expansion of secondary sanctions targeting entities in China, Hong Kong, and other countries trading with Iran, including designations on nearly 60 entities, individuals, and vessels. The measures, described as Operation Economic Outcast or economic D-Day, coincide with President Trump contacting world leaders and occur as the US-Iran conflict approaches its sixth month. Indian exports to Iran have declined from $3.5 billion in FY2019 to $1.2 billion in FY2026.
