Trump: Oil prices will quickly drop as the "Iran nuclear threat" is eliminated
US President Donald Trump claimed that oil prices will quickly drop after the so-called "Iran nuclear threat" is eliminated.
Previously, Trump told CNN that people should not be overly worried about rising gasoline prices against the backdrop of the Middle East conflict.
Trump posted on his social platform "Truth Social": "Short-term price increases are just a minimal cost for the US and global security and peace — oil prices will quickly回落 after the Iranian nuclear threat is destroyed."
Iran is retaliating against the attacks by the US and Israel by striking US military facilities and Israeli territory in the Middle East. On the first day of the conflict (February 28), a girls' school in southern Iran was attacked, and Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was also killed in an attack. According to Iran's UN representative Amir Saeed Iravani, the attack has caused more than 1300 deaths.
Washington and Tel Aviv have explained the start of this military operation as a preemptive strike, claiming that Tehran poses a threat due to its nuclear program. However, they no longer hide their intention to achieve regime change in Iran.
