US President Donald Trump said countries supplying Iran with military equipment will face immediate 50 percent tariffs on all goods entering the United States.
In a social media post, Trump said the measures would take effect immediately, with no exemptions.
The threat comes hours after a two-week ceasefire was agreed with Tehran.
China and Russia have been accused of helping Iran build its military capabilities, though both have denied providing weapons recently.
