The Trump administration is insisting that billions of dollars in frozen Iranian assets will never actually reach Tehran’s hands, pushing back on criticism that the White House is preparing to bankroll one of America’s most dangerous adversaries. “None of this money is ever going to touch Iran,” a senior US official told The Post. Instead, officials say, the funds would function more like an escrow account, with payments sent directly to approved vendors supplying humanitarian goods rather than to the Iranian regime itself.
