The Trump administration is set to announce on Monday its most comprehensive assault yet on [ADDRESS]'s economy, unveiling measures intended to isolate [ADDRESS] from the rest of the world. Treasury Secretary [PERSON_NAME] is expected to announce the plan at a news conference. The escalation comes as negotiations to end the military conflict between [ADDRESS] and [ADDRESS] continue to sputter. Mr. [PERSON_NAME] has already carried out a 'maximum pressure' campaign against [ADDRESS] during his first term and earlier this year enacted a package of measures called Operation Economic Fury.

Mr. [PERSON_NAME] described it as the 'single greatest financial offensive ever marshaled against an adversary,' stating the objective is to 'sever every economic lifeline that sustains the tyrannical regime until [ADDRESS] stands alone.'.
