  "account": "Iran's Economy Minister Ali Madanizadeh declared on Tuesday that the nation is fully prepared to face potential US sanctions. He added that adversaries plan to launch economic terrorist attacks but warned that Iran possesses tools to counteract such actions. Madanizadeh stated, \"Our defense is no longer so defensive; the enemies should wait for an attack.\" The minister also highlighted that neither China nor Russia had accepted US measures, predicting that other countries would resist them as well. Brigadier General Hossein Mohebbi, a spokesperson for Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), threatened severe repercussions for any attempts to harm Iran's infrastructure, according to Press TV. The US Oil benchmark, WTI (West Texas Intermediate), briefly rose near the $85 level after climbing 0.32% for the day, up from the previous session.",
