Tehran prepares for a disaster scenario

Iran has begun preparing its budget for 2027 in response to the possibility that oil revenues could fall to zero if the US blockade continues.

TodayPress TV reports, citing “Al Jazeera”, that Iranian officials have been instructed to draft a budget proposal that takes into account a scenario in which oil revenues are completely cut off.

The government in Tehran is now seeking alternative sources of funding to cover salaries, pensions and other essential state expenditures without revenue from oil exports.

The report notes that Iran is making official preparations for a prolonged crisis in oil revenues.
