Donald Trump announces tariffs on countries trading with Iran following protest crackdown | BBC News


US President Donald Trump has announced countries doing business with Iran will face a 25% tariff on trade with the US, in response to a deadly crackdown on anti-government protests.

Trump has also been briefed on a range of military and covert options for use in the country, officials have told the BBC’s US partner CBS News – including long-range missile strikes, as well as cyber and psychological tools.

Iran’s foreign minister said Tehran is open to talks with Washington, but remains "prepared for war".

At least 648 protesters have been killed in the ongoing crackdown in Iran, a human rights group said – but warned the death toll could be far higher.
