Trump is pivoting back to sanctions on Iran after other strategies to end the conflict are stalling. Officials and allies had hoped diplomacy, pressure campaigns, or negotiated incentives would produce movement, but outcomes have fallen short. The shift signals a preference for coercive leverage over engagement, aiming to restrict Iran’s ability to support actors linked to the war.

The plan’s design, targets, and enforcement will likely determine whether it gains traction.
