US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's latest remarks that Washington will impose "the toughest sanctions in history" on Iran while urging China to cooperate reflect an attempt to shift responsibility for the prolonged Iran war and the failure of US pressure tactics. By trying to drag China into the discussion, Washington is essentially resorting to the ploy of "making others take medicine for one's own illness." This amounts to the US' making excuses for its own erroneous policy toward Iran, said Chinese experts.
China opposes illicit unilateral sanctions that lack basis in international law and UN Security Council mandate, Lin Jian, spokesperson of the Chinese Foreign Ministry said on Friday in response to Bessent's remarks, calling on parties to act responsibly and stick to the political and diplomatic approach.
"We have the blockade (on Iran), and we are going to have the toughest sanctions in history," Bessent told CNBC. Bessent said he would hold a press conference on Monday to discuss details, according to a Reuters report.
When asked if the US could target China for doing business with Iran, Bessent said many conversations were best to have in private. "We are confident that everyone wants the Strait (of Hormuz) reopened, and for energy prices to come back down," he said, per Reuters.
Bessent's comments on Thursday followed US President Donald Trump's threat a day earlier of "Economic Warfare" and warning of economic consequences against any country that provided "any type of lifeline to Iran," according to Reuters.
The US appears to have reached an impasse with Iran, caught in a dilemma in which it can neither secure a military victory, reach a political settlement, nor easily disengage. Against this backdrop, Washington is seeking to intensify economic pressure on Tehran to force concessions, while also directing pressure toward China. At its core, this approach amounts to waging an economic cold war against Iran in an attempt to compel Tehran to alter its existing policies, Sun Degang, director of the Center for Middle Eastern Studies at Fudan University, told the Global Times on Friday.
Amid declining domestic support for the US' current policy on Iran, Bessent sought to shift blame onto others, a clear case of buck-passing. By blaming normal trade between Iran and countries such as China and Russia for the prolonged Iran crisis and the failure of Washington's pressure campaign on Iran, the US is "asking others to take medicine for its own illness." The root cause lies in Washington's own confrontational policy toward Iran, said the expert.
At a press conference of the Chinese Foreign Ministry on Thursday, a Bloomberg reporter asked: "US President Donald Trump has announced plans to inflict what he calls an 'economic D-Day' on Iran, including threats against Iran's trading partners. Given that China buys a large amount of Iranian oil, does the Foreign Ministry have any comment on this approach of economic warfare that Trump is threatening and how it might affect China?"
Spokesperson Lin said that sanctions and pressure tactics are not the solution. China calls on all parties to act responsibly and remain committed to a political and diplomatic approach.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi described the US move as a "diversion from America's own crisis: unprecedented debt & surging interest costs." "Doubling down on failed policies will only bring further defeat - and enmity of Iranians. US economic terrorism threatens global economy and sovereignty worldwide," Araghchi wrote on X on Thursday morning.
The US has sanctioned Iran for decades without achieving its desired results. During the maximum economic pressure campaign launched in 2018, Iran suffered a severe economic downturn, yet Washington failed to force Tehran into major concessions. A new round of tougher sanctions could further strain Iran's economy and disrupt trade with regional partners, but is unlikely to trigger an immediate collapse, Tian Wenlin, a professor at the Renmin University of China's School of International Studies, told the Global Times.
Washington also appears to be taking a dual-track approach toward China: seeking to use China's economic leverage over Tehran while threatening Chinese companies that continue normal trade with Iran, said the expert.
Washington's shift from military options to economic pressure may signal limited de-escalation, but the broader US-Iran rivalry could settle into a prolonged, low-intensity standoff. Persistent tensions around the Strait of Hormuz would keep global energy markets under pressure, fueling inflation and weighing on global growth, said the expert.
Oil prices rose to more than a three-week high on Thursday following those US threats of financial penalties aimed at forcing an end to a nearly six-month-old war that has stranded millions of barrels of Middle Eastern oil, according to a Reuters report on Friday.

二 | 这个动作，第一次出圈是在6月22日的WNBA赛场。不妨直接看现场原图：那天，印第安纳狂热以86-77击败菲尼克斯水星。
三 | 第四节，凯特琳·克拉克（Caitlin Clark）和德万娜·邦纳（DeWanna Bonner）因激烈的身体对抗而发生冲突，克拉克队友索菲·坎宁安（Sophie Cunningham）很快走了上来，直接站出来和邦纳正面对上。
四 | 接下来，坎宁安和邦纳两个人互相指向对方，紧张的局势随后被队友拉开。但坎宁安一边被往回带，一边继续面无表情伸手指着邦纳，持续了22秒。这不是坎宁安第一次在克拉克卷入身体对抗后站出来。2025年，克拉克在和杰西·谢尔顿（Jacy Sheldon）发生冲突后，坎宁安就曾用一次被许多球迷视为「替队友出头」的强硬犯规，被开玩笑称为「保镖」。本来是再寻常不过的维护队友行为，但这次不同——因为这一指，坎宁安彻底出圈了。先是铺天盖地的动图、评论，再是网友们各种形式的二创，甚至在近期拉斯维加斯UFC 329现场，坎宁安被邀请到现场复刻这个经典画面。图源：坎宁安社媒一个简单的伸手指人动作，为什么会在不到三周时间里一路火到篮球场之外，变成谁都认识的网络梗？首先便是这个动作足够直白。比起推搡、拉拽，或者难以听清的口角，伸手指人几乎没有理解门槛。它足够简单，也足够明确。你不需要知道前因后果，就能瞬间感知那种不满的情绪。正因如此，它很容易脱离比赛，被复制到体育、娱乐甚至日常生活，成为一种可以不断套用的情绪表达模板。除了易于理解和传播之外，指人动作的爆红的另一大重要原因还在于它恰好发生在凯特琳·克拉克身边。过去一年，克拉克不只是狂热队的核心，也成了整个WNBA流量、讨论中心之一。在比赛的收视率、讨论度都因她而大涨的同时，围绕她的人更容易进入公众视野，她的队友坎宁安就是典型例子。然而，当人们关注重心从「看球」持续倾斜向「看球员」时，WNBA的舆论生态也发生着巨大变化。直观现象便是，以知名球星为中心，球员在场上会被球迷简单划分自己人或对面的人。球场上的争端，本该由裁判和规则解决，留在场内。但在这种二元生态下，质疑、歧视甚至是仇恨，都有可能蔓延至赛场之外。
五 | 近日，水星队队员阿丽莎·托马斯（Alyssa Thomas）就因另一个与克拉克相关的争议动作，在赛后还接连收到带有种族歧视言论以及威胁家人生命安全的短信。比赛中阿丽莎因为这个动作受到了处罚克拉克和狂热主教练斯蒂芬妮·怀特（Stephanie White）都先后谴责了这种越过比赛本身的人身攻击和生命威胁。联盟随后也重申，任何形式的仇恨和骚扰都不可接受，并再次强调对球员的保护措施。无论是为队友站出来的保护者，还是对手，这些标签都只是互联网从球员们身上提取出来的一个切面。因为WNBA持续火热的舆论环境，一个来自赛场的手势，拥有了一段远超比赛本身的生命。
六 | 但除了这些手势、切面，WNBA球员们值得被记住的其实还有更多，可以是一场表现、一种姿态，也可以是更多立体、鲜活的故事。
