National Security Presidential Memorandum/NSPM-2

President Donald Trump issued National Security Presidential Memorandum/NSPM-2 to impose maximum pressure on Iran, aiming to prevent the country from acquiring nuclear weapons and to counter its regional aggression. The memorandum directs various U.S. departments and agencies to enforce strict sanctions on Iran, targeting its financial networks and oil exports, and to disrupt the activities of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and its proxies. The Secretary of the Treasury is tasked with implementing a robust sanctions enforcement campaign, while the Secretary of State is directed to isolate Iran diplomatically. The memorandum also calls for legal actions against Iranian-sponsored terrorism and espionage within the United States. This action underscores the U.S. commitment to neutralizing perceived threats from Iran and safeguarding national security.
