Washington, United States: US President Donald Trump on Friday signed an executive order threatening tariffs on Iran's trade partners, after he pledged a further round of talks with Tehran next week.
The order, effective from Saturday, called for a fresh "imposition of tariffs" on countries still doing business with Iran.
It comes amid heightened tensions between Washington and Tehran, with indirect talks held on Tehran's nuclear program in Oman on Friday.
The levies “may be imposed on goods imported into the United States that are products of any country that directly or indirectly purchases, imports, or otherwise acquires any goods or services from Iran,” the order said.
Trump issued a threat of 25 percent tariffs on any country trading with Iran last month.
