The US 224 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 3: says it has carried out defensive strikes on Iranian vessels 225 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 3: in the Strait of Hormus and other locations, even as 226 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:46,199 Speaker 3: President Trump Tout's progress on an interim deal. Secretary of 227 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 3: State Marco Rubio says the Strait remains a sticking point. 228 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 10: I need to reopen. What's happening there is unlawful. 229 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 12: It's illegal, it's unsustainable for the world. 230 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 3: That's unacceptable, and it was Secretary of State Marco Rubio 231 00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 3: joining us this morning is Jumani Borsecchi, the Inchorloomberg Horizons 232 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 3: or Bloomberg Middle East correspondent. Great to have you with us, Jumani. 233 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 3: Can you catch us up on what's been happening in 234 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 3: just the last twenty four hours. It seems like there 235 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 3: have been strikes, encounter strikes to some extent. Good morning, Yeah. 236 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 12: I would describe it as a skirmish on the street overnight, 237 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 12: which is surprising given the background to all of this 238 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 12: as we know is that the negotiations are continuing. But 239 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 12: what we do know about the strike, Scent comput out 240 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 12: of comment this morning saying that they were acting in 241 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 12: a self defense capacity. The US targeted specifically missile launchers 242 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 12: alongside some mind laying vessels on the Iranian side. Now, 243 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 12: the Iranian media this morning also quoted the Iranian air 244 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 12: defense system is being activated and said that they had 245 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 12: shot down or targeted rather a US drone and an 246 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 12: unmanned fighter jet. So this has all gone down overnight 247 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 12: in the region. Now, I will just say that neither 248 00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 12: side are showing an inclination of taking this one step further. 249 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 12: We haven't had follow up comments from Iran. There's been 250 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 12: no official commentary about exactly what happens with those US strikes. 251 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 12: And at the same time, you know, the diplomatic track continues, 252 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 12: and we know that the Iranian Speaker of the House, 253 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 12: Mohamed Ghalibaf, alongside the Ranian Foreign Minister a bus are 254 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 12: actually are actually in Doha in Kutar today to continue 255 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 12: with those diplomatic discussions. So in the background, there is 256 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 12: still hope somewhat of a breakthrough. 257 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 3: Now I do understand that there was a written statement 258 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 3: from Iran Supreme Leader Hameni warning that the you or 259 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 3: the Middle East will no longer be a safe haven 260 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,959 Speaker 3: for American basis. Does that complicate things as far as 261 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 3: the behind the scenes talks go. 262 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean you also have to take it with 263 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 12: a pinch of salt, because the Supreme Leader has not 264 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 12: been seen since the war started, and that's been three 265 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 12: months now, So he tends to issue these messages on telegram, 266 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 12: and it is also unclear whether he's writing them himself. 267 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 12: But it should be noted that this is the start 268 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 12: of the II for any of the countries in the 269 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,199 Speaker 12: Islamic world. In the our world, it's a long holiday period. 270 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 12: So he called on in his words, Islamic and Arab 271 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 12: countries to unite and at the same time issued this 272 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 12: threat to the US saying they will no longer have 273 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 12: a safe haven for mischief and the establishment of military 274 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 12: bases in the region. But the Iranian Supreme Leader, even 275 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 12: his father, is known for this type of rhetoric. The 276 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 12: takeaway is that this we shouldn't be reading too much 277 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 12: into it, but it is one of those sort of 278 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 12: customary threats that Iran will issue from time to time. 279 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 12: The bigger picture here is those indirect negotiations that are 280 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 12: still going on and these sticking points. There's still many 281 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 12: sticking points that remained between Iran and US, and whether 282 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 12: we can actually paper over those differences in the very 283 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 12: short time frame that Trump seemed to have suggested over 284 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 12: the weekend. 285 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 3: Just thirty seconds left Jumana. But even if we do 286 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 3: get something like a sixty day extension, which we understand 287 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 3: is part of this framework negotiation, how would that help 288 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 3: when uclear negotiations, Well. 289 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 12: It depends how many concessions the US are willing to 290 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 12: give up in Phase one in order to get the 291 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 12: street reopened. And this has been the sticking point and 292 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 12: why Trump also, i think, faced so much backlash back home, 293 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 12: because there was a suggestion that the US was giving 294 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 12: up too much for Iran to reopen the streets before 295 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 12: they've even gone onto the three year topic of what 296 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 12: happens with the nuclear file, the nuclear ambitions, and of 297 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 12: course the fate of that highly enriched stockpile. Overnight, Trump 298 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 12: saying that the stockpile will immediately be turned over to 299 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 12: the US to be brought home and destroyed or destroyed 300 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 12: in another place at another acceptable location. We just don't 301 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 12: have the details yet. 302 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg Daybreak, your morning podcast on the stories 303 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 2: making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 304 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 3: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 305 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 3: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere else you listen. 306 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 307 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 2: am Wall Street Time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 308 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 2: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine one in Washington, Bloomberg 309 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 2: ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious XM 310 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 2: Channel one twenty one. 311 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 3: Plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app 312 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 3: now with Apple CarPlay and Android Atto interfaces. 313 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 2: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
