But President Trump says there 231 00:11:58,120 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 3: is still a chance for diplomacy. 232 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 4: We're very close to having a deal, and if we 233 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 4: don't have a deal, we'll do it one way or 234 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 4: the other.

Can you catch us up on 240 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 3: what's been happening over the last twenty four hours? 241 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 5: Good morning, Yeah, Good morning, Nathan. So look, I mean 242 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 5: you just said it. This is the one hundredth day 243 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 5: mark for the war in the Middle East, and this 244 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 5: treasure seems to be regressing quite rapidly this morning. So 245 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 5: this started yesterday the escalation in the hostilities with Israel 246 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 5: hitting Hesbela targets or as they call them, terrorist targets 247 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:46,559 Speaker 5: in Lebanon Hesbula, retaliating by hitting northern parts of Israel, 248 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 5: and then Israel hits back to the capitol Beirut the 249 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 5: southern suburbs of the capitol Beirut, killing two people and 250 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 5: drinks several others. And then this morning, after a phone 251 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,839 Speaker 5: call between President Trump and Prime Minister Bench and Natanyahu, 252 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 5: where President Trump told him to not retaliate against Lebanon 253 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 5: or Iran. Only a few hours after that into the 254 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 5: morning in the Middle East, we're seeing reports of attacks 255 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:17,439 Speaker 5: in Iran. Those include some western cities in Tehran including 256 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 5: Esfahan and Karaj and Tabreeze, and then a hit against 257 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 5: a petrochemical plant in Iran as well, where officials had 258 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 5: to evacuate personnel. Iran also hitting northern parts of Israel 259 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 5: this morning. So the situation seems to be escalating quite 260 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 5: fast this morning, with really no end in sight at 261 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 5: the moment. President Trump did say before this all unraveled 262 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 5: that a deal is still imminent, that this is the 263 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 5: interim Deal or what we've been calling the interim deal, 264 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 5: which is the MoU that would lead to the opening 265 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 5: of the Strait of her Moods and then an extension 266 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 5: of the ceasefire for sixty days. But with all the 267 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 5: hostilities that we've been seeing since the previous week, we're 268 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 5: also so Kuwait in the GCC saw its main airport 269 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:08,559 Speaker 5: getting hit and suffering some significant infrastructure. One really questions 270 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 5: how sustainable the ceasefire is, and the answer to that is, well, 271 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 5: it's been pretty fragile over the past two months to 272 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 5: begin with, but the escalations this morning bring into question 273 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 5: some further complications that President Trump's going to have to 274 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 5: look at once the US. 275 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 6: Is more awake. Well, we have seen signs of escalation 276 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 6: in the past. 277 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 3: We've seen the Iran lob rockets at Kuwait and Bahrain 278 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 3: in the past as well. 279 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 6: What makes this latest escalation different a beer. 280 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 5: Well, first starters the fact that this is a direct 281 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 5: hit at Iran. Right, So, in the past or over 282 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 5: the past week, what's happened is those hostilities against GCC 283 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 5: countries have been sort of in the background. They haven't 284 00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 5: happened as significantly as they have last week beginning of 285 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 5: last week. But the conflict or the hostilities in Lebanon, 286 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 5: for example, have been going on even since the April 287 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 5: eighth ceasefire agreement was reached. This is the first such 288 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 5: attack that you're seeing on Iran itself and not its 289 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 5: allies in the region. And then even post those attacks 290 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 5: that happened last week, President Trump did come out and 291 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 5: say multiple times as a matter of fact, that they 292 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 5: don't impact that those attacks, while they're not favorable, and 293 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 5: he did say to Iran that you shot your missiles, 294 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 5: that's enough. That's a direct quote from the president. He 295 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 5: did say that those don't impact the wider ceasefire agreement. 296 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 5: He said that representatives of Hezbolah, the militia in Lebanon 297 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 5: that's getting attacked that is backed by Iran. He said 298 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 5: that he got calls from representatives that had agreed to 299 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 5: the ceasefire, while the public line from Hesbelo was that 300 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 5: they rejected the ceasefire that we spoke about that was 301 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 5: agreed between Lebanese officials and Israeli officials in Washington. But 302 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 5: this timer one has to really look at how serious 303 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 5: those escalations are. 304 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg Daybreak, Your Morning podcast on the stories 305 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 2: making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 306 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 3: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 307 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 3: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere else you listen. 308 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 309 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 2: am Wall Street Time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 310 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 2: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, 311 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 2: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 312 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 2: XM Channel one twenty one. 313 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 3: Plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app 314 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 3: now with Applecarplay and Android auto interfaces. 315 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 2: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
