Trump extends pause on attacking Iran energy facilities to April 6
President Donald Trump on Thursday said that he was extending a pause in attacking Iran’s energy facilities by 10 days, to April 6, at the request of the government of the Islamic Republic.Trump’s announcement on Truth Social came as key stock market indices fell and oil prices rose.
“As per Iranian Government request, please let this statement serve to represent that I am pausing the period of Energy Plant destruction,” Trump said in a Truth Social post.
“Talks are ongoing and, despite erroneous statements to the contrary by the Fake News Media, and others, they are going very well. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
Trump extends pause on attacking Iran energy facilities to April 6
Trump's announcement that the U.S. would continue a pause on energy sites in Iran came as key stock market indices fell and oil prices rose.
When the Dow closed down almost 500 points today and oil rose about 5% on continuing concern about the impasse between the US and Iran I covered my short positions. Thinking trump would not allow things to fester over the w/e. I guessed right.
IMO this is going to embolden Iran. No pun intended but they have trump over a barrel unless their control over the Strait ends.
