US and Israel\u2019s war on Iran.<\/p>\n<p>Trump made the comments on Monday after a rollercoaster 24 hours that saw crude oil prices\u00a0soar to\u00a0nearly\u00a0$120\u00a0a barrel before dropping below $90.<\/p>\n<section class=\"more-on\">\n<h2 class=\"more-on__heading\">Recommended Stories<!-- --> <\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">list of 4 items<\/span><span

We\u2019re going to take those sanctions off until this straightens out,\u201d Trump said at a news conference at his golf club in Miami, Florida.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen, who knows, maybe we won\u2019t have to put them on \u2013 there\u2019ll be so much peace,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Trump did not specify which countries would be subject to sanctions relief. Washington currently maintains sanctions on the oil sectors of Russia, Iran and Venezuela.<\/p>\n<p>The Reuters news agency, citing multiple unnamed sources, reported on Monday that Trump was considering easing sanctions on Russia as part of his plans to keep oil prices down.<\/p>\n<p>US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent last week announced a 30-day waiver on sanctions on Russian oil sales to India amid concerns about growing pressure on global supplies.<\/p>\n<p>Crude oil prices continued their retreat after Trump\u2019s comments, with Brent crude hovering at around $84 a barrel as of 02:00 GMT on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>Global energy markets have been on tenterhooks since the US and Israel launched joint strikes on Iran on February 28, with crude prices surging as much as 50 percent compared with before the conflict.<\/p>\n<p>Iranian threats have effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz, through which about one-fifth of the global oil supply transits, forcing major Gulf region producers to cut production amid an accumulating backlog of supply, as shipping has largely halted.<\/p>\n<p>Global energy supplies have also been threatened by Israeli strikes on Iranian oil facilities and drone attacks, widely blamed on Iran, on oil and gas infrastructure in US allies in the region, including Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait.<\/p>\n<p>Analysts have predicted that oil prices could rise to $150 or even $200 a barrel if the strait remains effectively closed for a prolonged period.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would say that it is possible for prices to reach new all-time highs in the coming weeks, but this is contingent on the Strait of Hormuz remaining closed in the weeks ahead,\u201d Homayoun Falakshahi, the head of crude oil analysis at global trade intelligence firm Kpler, told Al Jazeera.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf the strait stays closed through April, then prices could continue to jump,\u201d Falakshahi said.<\/p>\n<p>Trump, who campaigned on ending the US\u2019s so-called \u201cforever\u201d wars in his 2024 election bid, on Monday offered conflicting signals about how long the war on Iran might last.<\/p>\n<p>During his news conference, Trump said he expected the war to be over \u201cvery soon\u201d, but that attacks on Iran would not stop \u201cuntil the enemy is totally and decisively defeated\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Trump made the remarks shortly after he told Republican lawmakers in a speech that the US had \u201calready won in many ways, but we haven\u2019t won enough\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier on Monday, Trump said in an interview with CBS News that the war was \u201cvery complete, pretty much\u201d and that his military campaign was \u201cvery far ahead of schedule\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crude oil prices plunge below $90 a barrel following an earlier surge to almost $120 in price swing over 24 hours.
