Good morning, I'm Nathan. 219 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 16: It will all work out in the end. 220 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 3: That is President Trump's latest word to critics of ongoing 221 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,319 Speaker 3: negotiations with Iran is both sides trade fire again near 222 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 3: the strait of horror moves. One of those critics is 223 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 3: former Trump National security advisor John Bolton. He's concerned about 224 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 3: unfreezing Iran's assets as part of a deal. 225 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 4: It's one thing to provide unfrozen assets to a real 226 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 4: government and Iran that represents the people. If we provide 227 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 4: this government frozen assets, it will entrench itself still further. 228 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 3: It's former National security advisor John Bolton, speaking on Bloomberg 229 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 3: this weekend. Joining us this morning from Dubai is Bloomberg 230 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 3: News United Arab member it's bureau chief Dana Krach. Dana, 231 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,319 Speaker 3: thanks for being with us this morning. Where do things 232 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 3: stand in the negotiations and can we say the ceasefire 233 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 3: is still holding this morning? 234 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 6: Good morning, Good morning. 235 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 7: Yes, on the talks front, I would say a stalemate. 236 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 7: But we've seen the Iran and the US trading fire 237 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 7: just like in previous days, with really no breakthrough for 238 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 7: the supposed MoU and it's probably not going to see 239 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 7: the light today. Iron attacked earlier today Kuwait again for 240 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 7: the second time in a few days, and it said 241 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 7: it was in response to US strikes on military targets 242 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 7: in southern Iran now the central commanding and struck radar 243 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 7: command and control sites for drums and around this weekend. 244 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 7: So this of course adds to the mixed signals we've 245 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 7: been seeing, you know, the last week and this weekend 246 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 7: on whether a deal is closed to be announced. And 247 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 7: you know, we remember from Friday President Trump said he'd 248 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 7: make a you know, quote unquote final determination on the deal, 249 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 7: but his meeting at the White House, you know, ended 250 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 7: without an announcement, and today he just said, you know, 251 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,959 Speaker 7: sit and relax. He's working on a good deal that'll 252 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,959 Speaker 7: be good for the US and it's ally Now what 253 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 7: we know is that the MoU draft is being sent 254 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 7: back and forth between the two of course, likely via 255 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 7: the main mediator, Pakistan. The deal would open or reopen 256 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 7: horm laws, extend the seas fired to sixty days, which 257 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 7: seems to be still holding despite the strikes on Kuwait. 258 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 7: So and during that sixty days, you know, the nuclear 259 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 7: program would be discussed. So but as you've just mentioned to, 260 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 7: the President finds himself under pressure from several angles. You know, 261 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 7: rise and gasoline prices in the US, critics saying we 262 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 7: should not, you know, unlock the billions of dollars that 263 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 7: are in Doha for the Iranian regime now and they 264 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 7: actually want President Trump to maybe rein in the Iranian regime. 265 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 7: Also another angle is inflationary impact from the continued closure 266 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 7: of Homos and of course, you know allies and the 267 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 7: Gulf who probably fear a resumption of the war and 268 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 7: renewed attacks on their basis, just like we saw what 269 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 7: happened with Kuwait. 270 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 3: On top of all this, over the weekend, we saw 271 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 3: one of the biggest incursions by Israel into southern Lebanon 272 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 3: in many years, planning the flag at Beaufort Castle in 273 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 3: our last minute here, how could that complicate things? 274 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:50,680 Speaker 6: It could. 275 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 7: Iron has always said the truth in Lebanon, a ceasefire 276 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 7: in Lebanon should be part of a deal with the US, 277 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 7: and that was part of the ceasefire that the US 278 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 7: and Dahran agreed to earlier in April. And we saw 279 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 7: gully Buff today, the Iranian parliament speaker and lead negotiator 280 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 7: for these talks, saying, you know, Israel's escalation in Lebanon 281 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 7: and the incursions that we saw the weekend as well 282 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 7: as the naval blockade are clear evidence of the US 283 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 7: not complying with the ceasefire. So this is probably putting 284 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 7: the ceasefire in the region at risk. 285 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg Daybreak, your morning podcast on the stories 286 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 2: making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 287 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 3: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 288 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 3: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere else you listen. 289 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 290 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 2: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 291 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 2: in New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine to one in Washington, 292 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 2: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 293 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 2: XM Channel one twenty one. 294 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 11: Plus. 295 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 3: Listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app now 296 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 3: with Apple CarPlay and Android auto interfaces. 297 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 2: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
