Trumpers' plan for "Maximum pressure" on Iran, including secondary sanctions on Chinese oil purchasers.

Maximum pressure only worked last time because it reversed the benefits of the nuclear deal. That's not repeatable.

I hope that China isn't going to obey American orders and impose sanctions on Iran, only for Trump to then focus on his trade war against China. If China is going to be sanctioned anyway, you might as well buy Iranian oil and supply them with more anti ship missiles and air defence

Idiotic. The "maximum pressure" campaign did not work back then, and the US has even less leverage against China today.
China has already signed a long term agreement with Iran to develop its economy. Russia might sign one as well soon.

They have already given local sanctions to all non essential (to US) firms on the basis of support to Russian war. So this effectively adds nothing except more administrative fines(?) inside US that will never be paid anyways.
