Through economic fury and the maximum pressure campaign, we have restored at the offset of this administration just over 1 year ago, the United States has imposed a financial stranglehold on the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism. 
Treasury has deprived the Iranian regime of revenue for their weapons programs, terrorist proxies, and nuclear ambitions. 
We have disrupted tens of billions in the regime's projected oil revenue. 
We have taken actions to freeze nearly half a billion in regime-linked cryptocurrency and disrupted hundreds of billions in Iran's illicit financial flows. 
And we have anticipated intensified our crackdown on Tehran's shadow banking networks. 
As the regime confronts the wreckage of its military, Treasury will remain relentless in our pursuit to constrict the network of vessels, intermediaries, and buyers through which Iran exports both its oil and malevolence.
