Trump launches second-term maximum pressure campaign

On Inauguration Day, President Trump's administration announces a new maximum pressure campaign against Iran, demanding complete dismantlement of the nuclear program and a 20-year freeze on enrichment. Officials declare that returning to the JCPOA is "off the table" and that only a dramatically more restrictive agreement is acceptable. The announcement signals the end of Biden-era diplomacy and sets the stage for a year of escalating tensions.
