WASHINGTON, June 3 (Reuters) - The U.S. maximum pressure campaign against Iran remains in "full force" despite U.S. efforts to reach a new nuclear deal with Iran, State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce told reporters on Tuesday.
The Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday that a directive came down last week from White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt to pause all new sanctions activity toward Iran. President Donald Trump’s “maximum pressure” campaign was stuck running in place, the Wall Street Journal said, citing a source close to the White House.
