U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessant said in an interview that the United States has spent $11 billion to combat Iran. Although the amount is large, the fiscal plan leaves room for a buffer. He criticized the UK for using military bases without authorization, which led to action delays and increased risk.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Besent said in an interview with Sky News UK that, according to recently released data, the United States has already spent $11 billion in less than two weeks to counter Iran. Although “$11 billion is indeed a huge sum,” the U.S. financial budget includes a buffer, and at this stage the U.S. still does not need to worry about it. In addition, Besent also accused the UK of failing to authorize the U.S. to use the Diego Garcia military base, which has delayed the U.S.’ ability to fully carry out military plans. As a result, the U.S. B-2 bombers had to make round trips for as long as 37 hours, and any delays would increase the risk of the operation. (CCTV International News)
