America's blockade is breaking Iran's economy

Original: America’s blockade is breaking Iran’s economy

The Economist reports that the American blockade is devastating Iran's economy, choking off trade, revenues and access to hard currency. The piece argues sanctions enforcement has reached a scale comparable to a blockade, deepening hardship for ordinary Iranians. The assessment has drawn attention in coverage of US-Iran tensions and the wider economic crisis in Tehran.

Why now: Rising US-Iran tensions and Iran's worsening economic conditions have put renewed focus on the impact of American sanctions.
