EEUU acumula una factura de 40.000 millones de dólares por la guerra con Irán
La Oficina de Presupuestos del Congreso advierte de que el conflicto ha consumido el equivalente a cinco años de munición, ha elevado la inflación en medio punto y aumentará el coste en unos 3.000 millones de dólares por cada mes adicional. Leer
The U.S. has amassed a $40 billion bill for the war with Iran, according to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). The conflict has consumed five years' worth of ammunition, raised inflation by half a percent, and will cost an additional $3 billion per month if it continues. The operation, "Fury Swift," devised by the United States and Israel to topple Iran's regime in hours, has escalated into a prolonged war that now costs the U.S. Treasury over $40 billion, equivalent to five years of ammunition and a half-point increase in inflation during an election year.
The CBO report, published on Monday, estimates that the war with Iran has resulted in a $38 billion expense for American taxpayers between February 28 and August 1. From then on, the CBO estimates that each additional month of conflict will add $3 billion to the cost.
