The US's declaration of new sanctions on Iran and its trade partners like China, Russia, India, UAE, and Turkey is a 'theatrical declaration' rather than a concrete, effective move because Iran has a long history of surviving sanctions and has developed ways to operate outside the global economy, making it unlikely to surrender to increased pressure without a diplomatic offer from the US.
