  "account": "Iran's Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi warned on Friday that Washington's anti-Iran economic operation is destined to fail, mirroring the failure of previous coercive measures like \"maximum pressure\" and \"unconditional surrender.\" Araghchi made the remarks on the social media platform X, following U.S. President Donald Trump's announcement of the \"most crushing economic operation ever taken\" against Iran. Trump called the move \"ECONOMIC D-DAY\" and pledged \"ECONOMIC WARFARE and ISOLATION on an unprecedented scale.\" The talks to end the war in the region, including Lebanon, scheduled to conclude within 60 days, have become uncertain following recent tensions between the two nations.",
  "summary": "\"14 years ago: 'Most crippling sanctions in history.' Failed. 8 years ago: 'Maximum pressure.' Failed. 5 months ago: 'Unconditional surrender.' Failed. Today: 'Most crushing economic operation ever.' Bound to fail,\" Araghchi posted on social media platform X.",
