Svmuu reported on Monday that U.S. President Trump said in an interview with CNBC, "To be honest, I don't care if the negotiations end." When asked about reports that Iranian negotiators had stopped communicating with the U.S. due to Israel's military operations in Lebanon, Trump responded, "I really don't care." Trump told CNBC that he "will ask" Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu "what exactly is the situation in Lebanon." He also stated that he is not worried about oil prices. This comes after a report from Iranian state media caused oil prices to surge, claiming that Tehran would not only halt negotiations but also vow to "completely blockade" the Strait of Hormuz. Trump said, "I think oil prices in the near future, and by that I mean very soon, will drop like a stone."
