Hello, I'm Stephen Carroll. I'm in Brussels, where many of Europe's biggest decisions get made. And I'm Caroline Hepke in London. We're the hosts of the Bloomberg Daybreak Europe podcast. We're up early every weekday, keeping an eye on what's happening across Europe and around the world. We do it early so the news is fresh, not recycled, and so you know what actually matters as the day gets going. From Brussels, I'm following the politics, policy and the people shaping the European Union right now. And from London, I'm looking at what all that means for markets, money and the wider economy. We've got reporters across Europe and around the globe feeding in as stories break. So whether it's geopolitics, energy, tech or markets, you're hearing it while it happens.
It's smart, calm and to the point. And it fits into your morning. You can find new episodes of the Bloomberg Daybreak Europe podcast by 7am in Dublin or 8am in Brussels, Berlin and Paris on Apple, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.
News when you want it. With Bloomberg News Now, I'm Doug Krisner. There have been a series of conflicting statements and actions since yesterday's announcement on the two-week ceasefire in the war against Iran. Today, the Speaker of the Iranian Parliament said three clauses have been violated so far. Now, this includes the issue of whether the ceasefire includes Israel's campaign in Lebanon and the parallel war against the Iranian-aligned militia Hezbollah. Now, mediator Pakistan and Iran have insisted the deal covers Lebanon. However, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Trump disagreed. At the same time, the White House said the U.S. will be holding direct talks with Iran in Pakistan over the weekend.
Vice President J.D. Vance will lead the U.S. delegation. Earlier, Vance said Israel may scale down its attacks in Lebanon.
The Israelis, as I understand it, have actually offered to be, frankly, to check themselves a little bit in Lebanon because they want to make sure that our negotiation is successful.
Meantime, Iran's semi-official Fars news agency reports oil tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz was halted after Israeli strikes. However, White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt countered that claim.
This is a case of what they're saying publicly is different privately. We have seen an uptick of traffic in the Strait today. And I will reiterate the president's expectation and demand that the Strait of Hormuz is reopened immediately, quickly and safely. That is his expectation. It has been relayed to him privately that that is what's taking place. And these reports publicly are false.
White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt. Earlier in the day, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said U.S. service members are not leaving the region.
We'll be hanging around. We're not going anywhere. We're going to make sure Iran complies with this ceasefire and then ultimately... comes to the table and makes a deal. So we'll stay put, stay ready, stay vigilant.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The Trump administration is reportedly considering a plan to punish some NATO countries deemed to be unhelpful to the U.S. and Israel during the conflict in the Mideast. The Wall Street Journal reports the proposal would involve moving U.S. troops out of some NATO member nations to countries more supportive of the U.S. military campaign. President Trump has raised the prospect of deploying U.S. troops against drug cartels in Latin America, and the U.S. has a willing partner in Daniel Neboa, the president of Ecuador. Neboa is betting a closer alliance with Washington will help control spiraling drug violence in Ecuador. The U.S.
role was very important. It helped us identify, because of the technology that the U.S. has, the locations where most... Target tracking. Exactly. Target tracking and their intelligence helped us. And most of the operations, I would say all of the operations, not most of the operations, were... led by our armed forces with the support of the U.S.
