National Security Presidential Memorandum/NSPM-2

President Donald Trump has issued National Security Presidential Memorandum/NSPM-2, directing a comprehensive "maximum pressure" strategy to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and counter its regional influence. This includes imposing stringent sanctions, disrupting financial networks, and isolating Iran diplomatically. The memorandum could have significant legal and political implications, potentially escalating tensions with Iran and affecting international relations, particularly with countries like China and those in the Gulf region involved in trade with Iran.
