flag U.S. sanctions on Iran worsened economic hardship, fueling public unrest amid protests driven by inflation, unemployment, and shortages.

flag U.S. sanctions on Iran have worsened economic conditions, contributing to public unrest amid widespread protests. flag While the demonstrations were primarily driven by political grievances and government repression, sanctions restricting oil exports and financial access deepened inflation, unemployment, and shortages of basic goods. flag These economic hardships, which disproportionately affected ordinary Iranians, intensified public frustration. flag Although sanctions were aimed at pressuring Iran over its nuclear program and regional activities, critics argue they have harmed civilians, highlighting the complex and often unintended consequences of economic pressure as a foreign policy tool.
