1
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:05,080
Speaker 1: Good morning. I'm Brian Curtis. Here are the stories we're

2
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:09,280
Speaker 1: following today. The major topic of US diplomacy in the

3
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 1: Middle East today was the possibility of some sort of

4
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:18,319
Speaker 1: pause in the region, along with the fact that it

5
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:20,480
Speaker 1: looks like the war is widening in the Middle East

6
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 1: that Baxter is covering. Historian has more from San Francisco.

7
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 2: Ed, Yeah, let's start with a widening. This Israel's up military.

8
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 2: It says it's exchanging fire with Hamas and has the

9
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:33,519
Speaker 2: law in Lebanon. Israeli troops encircled Gaza. US Secretary of

10
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,480
Speaker 2: State Anthony Blincoln has finished that part of his trip

11
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 2: in Turkey.

12
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 3: He've engaged the Israelis on steps that they can take

13
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,959
Speaker 3: to minimize civilian casualties. We're working, as I said, very

14
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 3: aggressively on getting more humanitarian sistance into Gaza, and we

15
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,199
Speaker 3: have very concrete ways of doing that, and I think

16
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:53,279
Speaker 3: you'll see in the days ahead that that assistance can

17
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 3: expand in significant ways.

18
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 2: And has talked about tactical pauses. That is what the

19
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 2: US is calling them, and it says the President Biden

20
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 2: has talked with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin that and Yahoo

21
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 2: today about how to do that. The United Nations has

22
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 2: issued an emergency appeal for one point two billion dollars

23
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 2: in funding to maintain humanitarian support for Palestinians in Gaza,

24
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 2: but a US diplomacy has not ended with Blincoln leaving

25
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 2: for Asia. Bloomberg's and Marie Hordern.

26
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 4: Bill Burns, head of the CIA, is also in Israel

27
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 4: today and is going to be traveling throughout the region.

28
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 4: So clearly what you see from this administration is one

29
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 4: they want to make sure humanitarian aid is getting into Gaza,

30
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 4: and at the same time they also want to make

31
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 4: sure that this conflict is not spread throughout the region.

32
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 2: And Ann Marie says the White House maintains the president's

33
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 2: military aid to Israel may double its Iron Dome arsenal,

34
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 2: that is the fourteen billion dollar aid request. Latest supports

35
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 2: are that deaths have passed ten thousand on the Gaza strip.

36
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 2: Donald Trump on the stand today in his New York

37
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 2: fraud trial, the issue whether he inflated his wealth to

38
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 2: get better terms from lenders and insurers. Bloomberg Legal editor

39
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 2: Tony Lynn says Trump gave about swinging from the start.

40
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 5: We've often seen you know, you know, once people are

41
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 5: under oath, they'll take a more measured sort of approach.

42
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 5: His sons, for instance, when they testified, they were sort

43
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 5: of much more moderate in tone than I guess some

44
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 5: of the rhetoric they've said. But I think Trump has not.

45
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 5: I didn't mince any words in terms of how he

46
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 5: feels about this proceeding.

47
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 2: And Tony said they really didn't seem to get a

48
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:29,799
Speaker 2: lot out of that.

49
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 5: Of course. Yeah, the judge put it well, he said

50
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 5: it was essentially the broken record all this. He repeated

51
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 5: sort of a lot of his talking points about how

52
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 5: the whole thing was unfair. Everyone was happy with him,

53
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 5: the banks, no one was hurt by his statements of

54
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 5: financial condition. And that's what he said a lot of

55
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 5: where he's basically said, you know, they made these loans,

56
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 5: didn't matter what these statements said. They all made money

57
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 5: from it.

58
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, but Attorney General, let teacher James said, they got

59
00:02:59,240 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 2: what they wanted.

60
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 6: He rambled you, he hurled insults, but we expected that

61
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 6: at the end of the day, the documentary evidence demonstrated that,

62
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 6: in fact, he falsely inflated his assets to basically enrich

63
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 6: himself and his family.

64
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:19,959
Speaker 2: And she says very apparent to the judge who makes

65
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 2: a final decision to that point, Farmer Prosecutor for the

66
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,239
Speaker 2: Southern District of New York, Jessica Roth, says, a lot.

67
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 7: Of states, and so really what remains to be decided

68
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 7: is the amount of disgorgement of profits and also what

69
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 7: the remedy should be in terms of perhaps permanently enjoining

70
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 7: Trump and his family members from doing business in the

71
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 7: state of New York.

72
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 2: And Trump to think.

73
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 3: That we're being sued and spending all this time and money,

74
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 3: and you have people being killed all over the world.

75
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 2: That this country could stop. Ivanka Trump on the stand

76
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 2: on Wednesday, Global News twenty four hours a day, whenever

77
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 2: you want it with Bloomberg News Now in San Francisco.

78
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 2: I'm at Baxter and this is Bloomberg.

79
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: Well, we take a look now as some of the

80
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: top business stories of the hour. US Treasury Secretary Janet

81
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: Yellen and Chinese Vice Premier Holy Fung will hold two

82
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: days of talks in San Francisco this week. The story

83
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 1: from Bloomberg's Joan Wong.

84
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 8: The Treasury Department says Yellen and her Beijing's top economic

85
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 8: official will meet on November ninth and tenth, The meeting

86
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 8: will take place on the sidelines of the Asia Pacific

87
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 8: Economic Cooperation Group, the Yellen Her talks are expected to

88
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 8: build on a series of recent visits and announcements between

89
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 8: the two sides. They're trying to improve diplomatic and economic ties.

90
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 8: Some of the issues likely to be addressed include US

91
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 8: export controls in Chinese military engagement in the South China Sea.

92
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 8: The us AS is not seeking to decouple from China,

93
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 8: but rather it's looking to de risk and diversify. Chinese

94
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 8: officials have criticized that message. In Hong Kong, Join Wang

95
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 8: Bloomberg Radio, We're go.

96
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 9: To China next and Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanesi has

97
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 9: met with Chinese President Sijiping in Beijing. Albanese is the

98
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 9: first Australian leader to visit China in more than seven years.

99
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 9: The meeting may go a long way to improving diplomatic

100
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 9: relations between the two countries. She told Albanzi that quote,

101
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 9: with joint efforts on both sides, we've been resuming our

102
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:12,039
Speaker 9: exchanges and various views and worked out some problems. Albanezi,

103
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 9: meanwhile praising the mature relationship between the two nations.

104
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 10: Australia, along with other countries in the region, has an

105
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 10: interest in continued stable growth in the Chinese economy and

106
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,840
Speaker 10: its ongoing engagement.

107
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:24,919
Speaker 5: With the world.

108
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 10: And I believe that we can all benefit from the

109
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 10: greater understanding that comes from high level dialogue and people

110
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 10: to people links, and that a strong relationship between our

111
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 10: two countries will be beneficial into the future.

112
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 9: That is Australian Prime Minister Anthony Alberanzi. Overall relations between

113
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 9: Australia and China have improved over the past year. High

114
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 9: level of ministerial meetings have restarted, and Chinese restrictions on

115
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 9: imports of Australian coal, timber and bali have all been lifted.

116
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: Brian Well, China's second biggest developer, has been given a

117
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: lifeline by its biggest shareholder and a local regulator. Bloomberg

118
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: yvon Mann has the story from Hong.

119
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 11: Kong, China. Wonka says it will repay its debts on

120
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 11: time after getting key signals of support. Shenjed regulator Assets

121
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 11: Supervision and Management Commission said it has confidence in Wanka.

122
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 11: The regulator said it will support the developer if it

123
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,159
Speaker 11: faces extreme conditions. The comments are made during an online

124
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:29,600
Speaker 11: meeting on Monday attended by financial institutions. Also, Wanka's largest shareholder,

125
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,599
Speaker 11: Shenjen Metro Group, said it had no plans to cut

126
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 11: its steake. Wonka dollar bonds surge as much as twelve cents,

127
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 11: putting some on pace for record gains. The expressions of

128
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:43,840
Speaker 11: support are rare for distressed developers in China. In Singapore,

129
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 11: I'm yvon Mann Bloomberg Radio.

130
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 9: Decision Day for the Reserve Bank of Australia. It's going

131
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 9: to issue its monetary policy decision at two thirty pm

132
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 9: Sydney time. That's in just over four hours. Most economists

133
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 9: forecasting the IBA to lift the cash right by twenty

134
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 9: five basis points at that meeting after the third quarter

135
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,359
Speaker 9: of CPI print came in hotter than expected. And this

136
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 9: comes even though the RBA's lifted rates by four hundred

137
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 9: basis points since April twenty twenty two, and that is

138
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 9: the fastest pace of tightening in the inflation targeting era. Inflation,

139
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 9: though proving stickier than expected. Bloomberg Economics has got an

140
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 9: out of consensus call for the RBA to stay on

141
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 9: hold four point one percent, which forecasts will be enough

142
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 9: to return inflation to the two to three percent target

143
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 9: ban by twenty twenty five. But whatever the RBA does today,

144
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 9: that hawkish bias going to remain in place.

145
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: Brian Yep Gordman Sachs is boosting pay incentives for its

146
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 1: asset management teams. Let's get that story from Bloombergs and Keats.

147
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 12: The changes instituted over the past several months will lift

148
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 12: the share of profits available for teams directly responsible for

149
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 12: the performance of Goldman's alternative investment funds. The share of

150
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 12: performance awards usually gets divvied up between employees and the

151
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 12: bank's own accounts. Under the new structure, investing teams will

152
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 12: receive forty to fifty percent of the pool. Goldman oversees

153
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 12: two hundred and sixty seven billion dollars in fee earning

154
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 12: alternative assets in Washington and Kate's Bloomberg Radio.

155
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 1: All right, at the time is twelve minutes passed. Oh

156
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: I wanted to mention that China Wanka did trade up

157
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 1: seven and a quarter percent yesterday after that news emerged

158
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: here in the Hong Kong market. For the details later

159
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: in the program. Well, let's say good morning our time too.

160
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: Daniel Flatley, Bloomberg national security reporter to talk a little

161
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: bit more about some of these developments in the Gaza war.

162
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: So President Biden discussing this notion of a tactical pause

163
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:42,679
Speaker 1: with the Israeli Prime Minister of Benjamin Netanyahu. I suppose

164
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: it for nothing else. I mean, it's always good to

165
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: have a little pause, but if for nothing else, just

166
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 1: to get more trucks in. I think I read that

167
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: only about two dozen relief trucks made it into Gaza

168
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 1: in the last twenty four hours.

169
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 13: Yeah, Brian, you know, these discussions are sort of ongoing,

170
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 13: and obviously we had US Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln

171
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 13: in the region earlier today. I think you know what

172
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 13: Biden's pleas are running up against is Israel's desire to

173
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 13: not give Hamas a chance to breathe, a chance to regroup,

174
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 13: a chance to seize some initiative and maybe take the

175
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 13: fight back toward Israel. They're really trying to from what

176
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 13: we've seen, Israel I mean, is trying to sort of

177
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 13: cordon off that northern part of Gaza, especially around Gaza City,

178
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 13: and try to go basically house to house, street to

179
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 13: street to try to root out some of the Hamas militants,

180
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,959
Speaker 13: and I think that the thinking is, at least on

181
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 13: the Israeli side, that if you pause that operation for

182
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 13: any you know, significant period of time, that you only

183
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 13: give your enemy a chance to regroup and strike back. Obviously,

184
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 13: the US feels somewhat differently about that, and I think

185
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 13: that there's a humanitarian argument that they're trying to make

186
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 13: to the Israelis about that. But you know, a very

187
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 13: complicated situation.

188
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 9: Yeah, of the work of going block to block, house

189
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 9: to house, there is the issue of the tunnels as well.

190
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 9: Ours the Israeli military handling that well.

191
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 13: Obviously we know that you know, over the last several

192
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 13: weeks they've bombarded that area with air strikes, artillery, other

193
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 13: forms of heavy weaponry to sort of soften that area up,

194
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 13: so to speak. But as you say, you know, tunnels

195
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 13: are underground and built that way for that purpose to

196
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 13: shelter from from that kind of bombardment. So in terms

197
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 13: of the tunnels, it's very hard to figure out where

198
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 13: they are, where the locations are. You know, Secretary of

199
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 13: State Blincoln made some comments sort of talking about you know,

200
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 13: they may have looked at the tunnels issue. The US

201
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 13: may have looked at the tunnel issue to a certain extent,

202
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 13: But I think basically what they're trying to do is

203
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 13: as much as possible contain the conflict to that northern

204
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 13: part of Gaza in order to really root out the

205
00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 13: Hamas leadership that may be sheltering in that area.

206
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 1: But as At Basha reported a few moments ago, and

207
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 1: as we know, the Israeli military said that it exchanged

208
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 1: fire with Hesbelah in Lebanon along with AMAS, so it

209
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 1: would seem that things are still in the expanding mode.

210
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 13: Yeah, I think that that is going to continue to

211
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 13: be the case for a long time to come. You know,

212
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 13: not only is there the risk of an expanding conflict

213
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 13: to the north, but also you know, we've had some

214
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 13: strikes against US troops in Iraq and Syria and other places.

215
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 13: So I mean, clearly there is a desire to as

216
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 13: Israel is Israel's enemies. I guess we could say, as

217
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 13: Israel is getting more deeply involved in Gaza. You know,

218
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,079
Speaker 13: Hesbela and others are seeking to take advantage of that

219
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 13: by potentially opening up another front that hasn't happened yet

220
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 13: to a great degree. But there's certainly some probing aspects

221
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:58,440
Speaker 13: to what they're doing there.

222
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 9: We've had this denial from the US as well that

223
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 9: an Iranian report that it's seeking a cease file. But

224
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 9: what sort of back channels exist between the US and Iran?

225
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 9: Can we expect that there are conversations happening, Well.

226
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 13: There's always some form of communication happening, especially now considering

227
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 13: the Biden administration prior to this recent conflict, was trying

228
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 13: to resurrect some form of nuclear deal with Iran. So

229
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 13: I'm sure that there are diplomats that are talking back

230
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 13: and forth on the back channel to Iran. But I

231
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 13: think that a lot of this is playing out obviously

232
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 13: in public. We had the Iranian Foreign minister a couple

233
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,320
Speaker 13: of weeks ago talking about the potential for the conflict

234
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 13: to expand. The US is very aggressive in terms of

235
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 13: sanctions and things that it's trying to do on Iran.

236
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 13: So I think that there's a bit of a chess

237
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 13: game going on here, where you may have some diplomacy

238
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 13: that's going on behind the scenes, but really a lot

239
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 13: of tough rhetoric in order to sort of keep a

240
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 13: lid on this conflict. Whether that will be successful in

241
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 13: the long run, you know, we don't know at this point.

242
