President Trump said this morning that he thinks we're nearing the end.
The U.S.
kept their side on the ceasefire.
We've stopped firing.
The Straits of Ramuth have not been completely reopened.
So we will see.
And I'm optimistic that during the summer, we will see gas with a three in front of it sooner rather than later.
I have it's Bank Week here in D.C., so I've been meeting with a lot of my Middle Eastern counterparts, the finance ministers, and they all say that once the Straits are open, they can start pumping again within one week.
What did he say there?
Mr. Again, I'm optimistic that sometime between June 20th and September 20th,
that we can have $3 gas again.
And as I said this morning, too, we are going to be watching the gas stations because they raised prices very quickly when the stated, when the crude oil prices went up.
We hope they'll bring them down just as quickly as crude oil prices have come down, which they've come down substantially just in the past 10 days.
Are you going to send Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff to do direct negotiations with the Iranians?
And now the General Kane, Secretary Hegseth, are leading a campaign to destroy all the fortifications along the Straits of Hermos.
Again, they're not mutually exclusive.
Sometimes you have to escalate to de-escalate, Chris.
All right.
Hmm.
I did not see the guest list.
