On October 3rd, the American news website Axios published an exclusive interview with U.S. Treasury Secretary Sebastian. When asked where the “golden age” promised by the U.S. government had gone, Secretary Sebastian directly blamed it on Iran.
Bessen said, “I believe that the golden age is a promising future, and it is already accelerating in pace. However, the war in Iran has obscured many signs of economic development.”
The reporter interrupted and said that it seems not only was progress hidden, but also economic development was suppressed, and even reversed.
Bessen's Filling: Apart from overall inflation, all economic indicators in the United States are strong.
The Wall Street Journal reported recently that prices of almost all goods in the United States are rising. In response, Besent did not give a direct statement, but insisted, “We will eventually overcome the difficulties caused by the conflict in Iran.”
