DUBAI:  Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said on Thursday that the U.S. "Economic D-Day" against Iran was a diversion from America's economic problems and warned that further pressure would fail.

Earlier, U.S. President Donald Trump announced what he called the "most crushing economic operation" ever taken against a country, targeting Iran with economic warfare and isolation.
