(Il Sole 24 Ore Radiocor) - Milano, 19 mag - US treasury secretary Scott Bessent called on leaders at a G7 conference to help the US fight Iranian terrorism by 'rooting out the financing that sustains it.' In comments for delivery at an anti-terrorism financing conference after a G7 finance leader meeting in Paris, Bessent said participants needed to "stand with us in full measure" against Iran.

'As the United States targets the financial networks that enemy actors use to perpetrate terror, we trust that your participation here today reflects a readiness to stand with us in full measure,' Bessent said.

'That will require, for example, our European partners to join the United States in taking action against Iran by designating its financiers, unmasking its shell and front companies, shuttering its bank branches, and dismantling its.

proxies,' he said.
