President Donald Trump has declared that massive spikes in global crude oil prices would be an acceptable consequence of launching military operations against Iran. Addressing reporters on Wednesday, he outlined his willingness to endure severe economic disruptions, asserting that taking action to neutralise Tehran's nuclear capabilities 'would have been worth it.'
These comments come at a time when global tensions are already running high. Financial markets around the world are watching closely to see how the conflicts in the Middle East might spill over. By openly accepting the risk of a major stock market drop and soaring energy prices, the administration is making its priorities very clear: it is fully committed to keeping nuclear weapons out of the region.
