Iran understands ‘brute force,' says US treasury secretary
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Wednesday Iran understands the language of force as he raised the possibility that President Donald Trump could order another attack against the country.
“What the Iranians understand is brute force, whether it's in the financial markets, whether it's on the military field and at Treasury, we have exercised maximum pressure,” he said in an interview on Fox News.
His remarks came after Trump met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House earlier Wednesday.
Bessent described their discussions as “very detailed talks,” without elaborating further.
