According to the intelligence services, preparations for possible attacks on current and former US officials have entered a more dangerous phase. Bessent has become at least the seventh senior official in Donald Trump\u2019s administration to change his place of residence for security reasons.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-summary-box\"><strong>Briefly about the main points<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>US Finance Minister Scott Bessent has moved to a military base following threats.<\/li>\n<li>US intelligence has warned of possible plots to assassinate US officials.<\/li>\n<li>At least seven senior officials in the Trump administration have moved away due to threats.<\/li>\n<li>Bessent has been leading the campaign of economic pressure on Iran since August 2026.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>US intelligence has warned of the threat of assassination attempts<\/h2>\n<p>According to The New York Times, the decision to move <strong>Bessenta<\/strong> were adopted following the receipt of intelligence regarding possible attacks on senior US officials.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of October, an intelligence representative from the administration <strong>Trump<\/strong> warned that preparations for Iranian operations against American citizens and officials had reached an advanced stage.<\/p>\n<p>However, the specific details of the threats against Bessent have not been disclosed. US officials note that Iran\u2019s ability to carry out large-scale operations on US soil is limited; nevertheless, the security services regard certain targeted threats as serious.<\/p>\n<p>According to Reuters, concerns about the minister\u2019s security intensified following the publication of a photograph of his home in the Georgetown area of Washington, which revealed the exact location of the residence.<\/p>\n<h2>Bessent is leading the economic campaign against Iran<\/h2>\n<p>Since August 2026, the US Secretary of the Treasury has been leading the operation <strong>Economic Outcast<\/strong>, aimed at tightening the financial isolation of Iran.<\/p>\n<p>The campaign involves extending sanctions against banks, financial intermediaries and companies that facilitate Tehran\u2019s international transactions. One of its aims is to restrict funding <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/world\/us-destroyed-iranian-tankers\/\">Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>These economic measures are accompanied by a US naval blockade of Iranian ports. Washington is attempting to force Tehran to cease its attacks on merchant ships and restore safe navigation through the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n<p>The US Treasury Department has stated that the threats will not affect Bessent\u2019s decision to continue the sanctions policy.<\/p>\n<h2>At least seven of Trump\u2019s officials have left their homes<\/h2>\n<p>Bessent has become the latest member of the Trump administration to be forced to move to a safer place of residence.<\/p>\n<p>According to the NYT, during 2025, at least six senior officials moved their residences to military bases or other high-security facilities.<\/p>\n<p>Among them are \u2014 <strong>Stephen Miller<\/strong>, who currently heads the White House staff, and the former Attorney General <strong>Pam Bondi<\/strong>. At the same time, not all instances of relocation were specifically linked to threats from Iran.<\/p>\n<p>Tehran had previously denied any involvement in planning attacks on US officials. However, in 2024, US federal prosecutors brought charges against a man they described as an agent of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in connection with the alleged plotting of an assassination attempt on Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p>The US administration does not disclose the full list of threats that are forcing officials to relocate.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u041c\u0456\u043d\u0456\u0441\u0442\u0440 \u0444\u0456\u043d\u0430\u043d\u0441\u0456\u0432 \u0421\u0428\u0410
