Pompeo: We want Iran to simply behave like a normal nation

US State Secretary Mike Pompeo released a video on Friday evening in which he said the US wants “Iran to simply behave like a normal nation.”
 

Claiming that the Iranian regime “used to fuel death and destruction across the Middle East” Pompeo said that the US policy had “deprived the [Iranian] regime of billions in revenue.”
 

Iranian oil revenues are down by 80% and it can’t access roughly 90% of its foreign currency reserves, he said. 
 

“This order will have a major impact on the Iranian economy,” President Trump said in a statement released on Friday. “Iran continues to be the world’s leading sponsor of terrorism.”
