Donald Trump threatened unprecedented economic warfare and isolation against countries supporting Iran, while Iran’s navy chief said waters east of the Strait of Hormuz and the Gulf of Oman were under Iran’s “complete control.” Experts questioned whether the measures, largely seen as a continuation of existing sanctions, could work.
