US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has stated that the Biden administration has not ruled out imposing new sanctions on Iran in response to the renewed conflict in the Middle East. Yellen made these comments during a visit to Marrakech, Morocco. She emphasized that while no decisions have been made yet, the administration is monitoring the situation closely. Yellen also mentioned that the US is monitoring the potential economic impacts of the crisis in Israel and Gaza. This comes as Sens. Jon Tester and Joe Manchin, along with other Democrats and Republicans, call on President Biden to freeze $6 billion in Iranian assets. Yellen's remarks indicate that the US could take steps to tighten sanctions on Iran, but she did not commit to specific actions. Former President Trump has also joined the GOP's calls for freezing the Iranian funds. Overall, Yellen's statements highlight the administration's willingness to consider new sanctions against Iran, although no concrete decisions have been made yet.
