The war with Iran is 6 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 2: now into its eleventh day, but President Trump is signaling 7 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:23,279 Speaker 2: it could be over very soon. At a news conference 8 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 2: from his resort in derral Florida, the President said the 9 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 2: conflict might not end this week, but it is going 10 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:29,760 Speaker 2: ahead of schedule. 11 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 4: Doing really well. 12 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,319 Speaker 5: I mean at a level that nobody thought. We took 13 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 5: a little excursion because we felt we had to do 14 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,159 Speaker 5: that to get rid of some evil. And I think 15 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:41,160 Speaker 5: you'll see it's going to be a short term excursion. 16 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,560 Speaker 2: President Trump says the US has hit five thousand targets 17 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,200 Speaker 2: in Iran.

He's 19 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,239 Speaker 2: promising to bring oil prices down that he says have 20 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 2: gone artificially up because of the excursion. We get more 21 00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 2: from Bloomberg's Jumana Borsecci in Dubai. 22 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 6: What has happened here is he is responding to global 23 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 6: markets and the impact that the energy shock is beginning 24 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 6: to have on some of these global energy markets and 25 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,960 Speaker 6: obviously ultimately the US consumer here. And he also made 26 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 6: another very strong threat to the IRGC, saying that if 27 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 6: they continue to block oil transportation through the Straits, they 28 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,919 Speaker 6: will be hit by the United States twenty times harder 29 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 6: than they have been hit thus far. 30 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 2: Bloomberg Stomanni Arsaci reports the president says he's discussed waving 31 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 2: some oil related sanctions in a call with Russian President 32 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 2: Vladimir Putin, and he's considering other options to bring oil 33 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 2: and gas prices down, including releases from emergency stockpiles and 34 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 2: a pause on federal gas taxes. In the meantime, blasts 35 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 2: continue to be heard across Iran, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain 36 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 2: have been dealing with incoming projectiles overnight, and Turkey says 37 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 2: NATO is deploying a US made Patriot missile defense system 38 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 2: to its south.

This is Bloomberg Daybreak. 204 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 2: Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager. Now until the eleventh day 205 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 2: of the war in the Middle East. President Trump is 206 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 2: sending a signal to Americans and markets that the conflict 207 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 2: with Iran could be over very soon. 208 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 5: We're putting an end to all of this threat once 209 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 5: and for all, and the result will be lower oil prices, 210 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 5: oil and gas prices for American families. 211 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 2: Was President Trump, speaking at a news conference in d Ralph, Florida. 212 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 2: Joining US this morning from Jerusalem is Bloomberg News reporter 213 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 2: Dan Williams. Dan, Good morning, from where use it? Does 214 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 2: it look like the war could be over very soon? 215 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 2: It feels like it's waiting. 216 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 14: Then again, keep in mind that Israel, unlike US forces 217 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 14: in the Gulf, unlike many Gulf Arab powers, is a 218 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 14: good distance away from Iran. Therefore, naturally there's been a 219 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 14: tapering off of long distance Iranian fire against Israel as 220 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 14: the Iranian arsenal has either been spent or cut down 221 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 14: by US Israeli air strikes, so there are fewer sirens, 222 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:35,079 Speaker 14: fewer calls to shelter. Israel is slowly reopening its economy, 223 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 14: kids aren't going back to school yet, and indeed, emergency 224 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 14: measures on the home front have been extended through Friday, 225 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 14: which indicates there won't be a full return to normalcy. However, 226 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 14: aviation is resuming gradually, but nonetheless it appears that things 227 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 14: will be back to normal in terms of civilian flights. 228 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 14: There is a separate front that Israel is dealing with 229 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 14: in Lebanon with Hezbalah, which is tradition the Iranian catspor, 230 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 14: a major gorilla ally of Iran. But even there there's 231 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 14: been a mixed message from Israel as to whether we 232 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 14: might see escalation or some sort of accommodation there. In 233 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 14: the Gulf as well, especially UEE, which has borne the 234 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,959 Speaker 14: brunt of Iranian strikes, their reporting to drop off in 235 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 14: those attacks from Iran, So it woul appear that when 236 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 14: the President speaks of having eliminated the Iranian threat when 237 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 14: it comes to the Arsenal, he would appear to be correct. 238 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 14: That appears to be the case on the ground. The 239 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:36,079 Speaker 14: wider questions is whether a fatal blow has been dealt 240 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 14: to the Iranian nuclear program, which appears to have been 241 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 14: reconstituted to a degree, or at least with the Iranians 242 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 14: retaining those stocks of highly enriched uranium that they had 243 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 14: last year after the previous round of us IS radio attacks. 244 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 14: On Iran, and also the wider question of what the 245 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 14: future holds for Iran should the shooting war end. In 246 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 14: terms of leadership, it would appear that the regime still 247 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 14: in place, is still holding firm, and the Israeli US 248 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 14: hope that through these attacks they've created enough of a space, 249 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 14: enough of a vacuum so that the opposition could come 250 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 14: in and topple that regime or replace it. We may 251 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 14: not be there quite yet. 252 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 2: Well, raises a question as well of what kind of 253 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:22,080 Speaker 2: opposition there is in Iran. After the appointment of the 254 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 2: late Supreme Leader Hameeni son Muchteba as the new Supreme Leader, 255 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 2: we've heard some comments from Iranian leaders apologizing for strikes 256 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 2: on neighboring countries and at the same time vowing to 257 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 2: continue fights against the US and Israel. What does that 258 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 2: tell us about where things could go? Dan in our 259 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,719 Speaker 2: last minute, that the. 260 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 14: Iranian regime is still in the fight publicly and in 261 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 14: terms of what remaining firepower it has, I would suggest 262 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 14: that you would have to be a hardliner in order 263 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 14: to take the reins there, given that you've already been 264 00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 14: threatened by death by these Raelis and similar signals from 265 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 14: the US the question is what the coming days hold 266 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 14: in terms of what even the American presidents, that could 267 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 14: be a lost round of very punishing, very damaging strikes 268 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 14: when I run, if indeed we're on the way to 269 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 14: see this shooting Horle Winding up. 270 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 3: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Here morning podcast on the stories 271 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 3: making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 272 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 2: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 273 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 2: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or manywhere else you listen. 274 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 3: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 275 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 3: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three zero in 276 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 3: New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, Bloomberg 277 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 3: ninety two to nine in Boston, and nationwide.
