Subject: turn up heat on smb
Пожалуйста, помогите перевести.

I guess this is a common idiom in English which is unfortunately hasn't yet entered the Russian dictionary...

The example of its usage is as follows: Microsoft To Turn Up Heat On Competitive IBM, Oracle Wins. OR "Emerging market losses turn up heat on Central Europe"

Maybe it's something like "задавать жару" though not sure...
Заранее спасибо

Да где-то так:
дать прикурить, прижать к стенке, нагнетать страсти и т.д.
