The war with Iran is 187 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 3: now at the three month mark, and once again the 188 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 3: US is going after Iranian targets near the Strait of Hormuz, 189 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 3: even as President Trump says Tehran is desperate to make 190 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 3: a deal. 191 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 4: They're negotiating on fumes. But we'll see what happens. Maybe 192 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 4: we have to go back and finish it. Maybe we don't. 193 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 3: That was President Trump at a White House Cabinet meeting 194 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 3: herd live on Bloomberg Radio, joining US now as Bloomberg 195 00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 3: Middle East correspondent to Bloomberg Horizons anchored Jumana Bursecci Jamana. 196 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 5: Good morning. 197 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 3: Are the latest strikes the US finishing it? 198 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 5: Good morning? 199 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 13: Yeah, Well, look at another test of the seas far 200 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 13: the second time this week that we see an incident 201 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 13: across the Strait of Hormones, but the US saying that 202 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 13: they acted in a defensive capacity. They shot down four 203 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 13: drones that were being directed at a US commercial vessel. 204 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 13: They also went on to target a drone launching site 205 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 13: in Iran as well, at close to the port of Bendarabas, 206 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 13: which is very close to the Strait of Hormos. In return, 207 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 13: Iran saying that they would stride back at US military base, 208 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 13: and around the same time Kowaits reported that their air 209 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,319 Speaker 13: defense system had been triggered, and so perhaps you could 210 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 13: infer that the Iranian response did come through on that base. 211 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 13: There's been no confirmation of that matter. But the point 212 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 13: is here that the US did say they were acting 213 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 13: defensive capacity, that the seas far is still being upheld, 214 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 13: and we truly are not seeing any further signs from 215 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 13: both sides that they want to escalate this further or 216 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:05,559 Speaker 13: actually resume full scale military hostilities. And in fact, yesterday 217 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 13: even irgc A spokesperson was saying that the likelihood of 218 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 13: returning back to full all out war was low, but 219 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 13: that they were ready for it if it does happen. 220 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 3: Well, where does this leave things then, when it comes 221 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 3: to the negotiations with the sort of tit for tat 222 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 3: happening near the Strait of Horror moves is the straight 223 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 3: the focal point at this point? 224 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 13: Well, I think the strait and clearing up the Straight 225 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 13: is top of mind, especially for President Trump. He made 226 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 13: lots of comments about it yesterday. You just played a 227 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 13: little bit of a clip he's saying, it's international waters, 228 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 13: the Strait's going to be open to everybody. The US 229 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 13: will watch over it. And this is i think a 230 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 13: response also to some of the language that's coming through 231 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 13: from Iranian media suggesting that Iran once again are insisting 232 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 13: that they have a right to ownership, of a right 233 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 13: to controlling the strait and establishing a new protocol in 234 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 13: the future, even a joint system with Oman, which of 235 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 13: course the President and eyed and rebuked quite quite aggressively 236 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 13: yesterday he even threatened Oman. But that is one of 237 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 13: the issues that they are going to be discussing and 238 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 13: continue to discuss around the framework for progressing on the negotiations. 239 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 13: And the first part of the deals we spoke about 240 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,439 Speaker 13: would be the lifting of the blockades around the Strait 241 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 13: of Hormos, an extension of that ceasefire, and then every 242 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 13: opening up of the nuclear file. But how to do 243 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 13: it in a manner whereby the US aren't offering too 244 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 13: many concessions to Iran upfront in the form of lifting 245 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 13: of some of those sanctions and unfreezing assets. So that's 246 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 13: the big question mark. 247 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 3: Now, So what is the bind that the president's in 248 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 3: right now with Iran continuing to insist on, you know, 249 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 3: financial support and pressure in Washington for the President not 250 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 3: to make a bad deal. We have about a minute laught. 251 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, that's the thing. And you know they 252 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 13: used to say in Brexit around the time of Brexits 253 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 13: and no deal is better than a bad deal. And 254 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,839 Speaker 13: I think in this situation it is obvious that the 255 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 13: president does actually want to go down the path of 256 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 13: a deal. There were many opportunities in the past week 257 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 13: where he could have gone down the military routes. He 258 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,079 Speaker 13: hasn't done that. He does say that and describe the 259 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 13: Ranians as being keen to make a deal. And certainly 260 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 13: there's been a big push diplomatically. Cutter are emerging now 261 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 13: as a key mediator. The focus has shifted away from 262 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 13: Pakistan to Kutar. They're working very hard. I think all 263 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 13: golf Arab states have also changed their tune as well. 264 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 13: So there is going to be a big push. But again, 265 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 13: as we've been speaking about, in all likelihoods, we will 266 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 13: probably get a framework for an eventual peace deal, not 267 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 13: a fully fledged, comprehensive piece deal that is going to 268 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 13: be announced on day one. 269 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg Daybreak, your morning podcast on the stories 270 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 2: making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 271 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 3: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 272 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 3: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or manywhere else you listen. 273 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 2: You can also listen live morning starting at five am 274 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,959 Speaker 2: Wall Street Time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero in 275 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 2: New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine to one in Washington, 276 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,840 Speaker 2: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 277 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 2: XM Channel one twenty one. 278 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 3: Plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app 279 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,559 Speaker 3: now with Apple CarPlay and Android Atto interfaces. 280 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 2: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
