He&nbsp;also&nbsp;expressed confidence that&nbsp;the conflict involving&nbsp;Iran would come&nbsp;to an end&nbsp;soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Iran war&nbsp;will end very&nbsp;soon,\u201d Trump said, adding that oil&nbsp;prices would fall&nbsp;once the conflict&nbsp;ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His comments come&nbsp;amid heightened concerns&nbsp;over energy supplies&nbsp;and the impact&nbsp;of regional tensions&nbsp;on global oil&nbsp;markets. Any disruption&nbsp;to oil transportation&nbsp;through the Middle&nbsp;East can place&nbsp;upward pressure on&nbsp;international crude prices&nbsp;because the region&nbsp;is a&nbsp;major source of&nbsp;global energy supplies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the media&nbsp;interaction, a journalist&nbsp;asked Trump whether&nbsp;he could help&nbsp;restore shipping through&nbsp;the&nbsp;<strong>Strait of Hormuz<\/strong>, particularly in light&nbsp;of recent concerns&nbsp;involving Saudi Arabia&nbsp;and regional security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In response, Trump&nbsp;described Saudi Crown&nbsp;Prince Mohammed bin&nbsp;Salman as a&nbsp;good friend and&nbsp;expressed&nbsp;confidence that the&nbsp;situation would eventually&nbsp;be resolved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Saudi Crown&nbsp;Prince is a&nbsp;good friend of&nbsp;mine. Everything will&nbsp;be fine,\u201d Trump&nbsp;said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump was also&nbsp;asked about an&nbsp;attack on&nbsp;important to the&nbsp;international oil market&nbsp;because a substantial&nbsp;share of global&nbsp;oil and gas&nbsp;shipments passes through&nbsp;the waterway. Any&nbsp;prolonged&nbsp;will decline following&nbsp;the end of&nbsp;the conflict indicates&nbsp;that his administration&nbsp;expects current geopolitical&nbsp;tensions to be&nbsp;a major factor&nbsp;behind recent pressure&nbsp;a pipeline in&nbsp;the region. He&nbsp;said Iran was&nbsp;probably responsible for&nbsp;the attack, while&nbsp;adding that the&nbsp;Houthis did not&nbsp;want to fight&nbsp;the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The comments reflect&nbsp;the US president\u2019s&nbsp;continued focus on&nbsp;bringing the regional&nbsp;conflict to an&nbsp;end while seeking&nbsp;to prevent further&nbsp;disruption to global&nbsp;energy supplies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Strait of&nbsp;Hormuz is particularly&nbsp;important to the&nbsp;international oil market&nbsp;because a substantial&nbsp;share of global&nbsp;oil and gas&nbsp;shipments passes through&nbsp;the waterway. Any&nbsp;prolonged disruption could&nbsp;have significant consequences&nbsp;for energy prices&nbsp;and the economies&nbsp;of oil-importing&nbsp;countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump\u2019s prediction that&nbsp;oil prices will&nbsp;decline following the&nbsp;end of the&nbsp;conflict indicates that&nbsp;his administration expects&nbsp;current geopolitical tensions&nbsp;to be a&nbsp;major factor behind&nbsp;recent pressure on&nbsp;energy markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also sought&nbsp;to reassure the&nbsp;public regarding US&nbsp;relations with Saudi&nbsp;Arabia, describing the&nbsp;Saudi crown prince&nbsp;as a close&nbsp;friend and saying&nbsp;he expected the&nbsp;situation to stabilize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same&nbsp;time, Trump\u2019s allegation&nbsp;regarding Iran\u2019s possible&nbsp;responsibility for the&nbsp;pipeline attack adds&nbsp;to the&nbsp;broader tensions between&nbsp;Washington and Tehran. Iran has consistently&nbsp;rejected allegations and&nbsp;accusations that&nbsp;it seeks to&nbsp;destabilize the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump\u2019s comments in&nbsp;Dublin therefore touched&nbsp;on several interconnected&nbsp;issues, including the&nbsp;Iran conflict, oil&nbsp;prices, the security&nbsp;of the Strait&nbsp;of&nbsp;Hormuz, relations with&nbsp;Saudi Arabia and&nbsp;the activities of&nbsp;the Houthis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For global energy&nbsp;markets, the duration&nbsp;and outcome of&nbsp;the conflict will&nbsp;remain&nbsp;crucial. If hostilities&nbsp;end and shipping&nbsp;routes return to&nbsp;normal, reduced geopolitical&nbsp;risk could ease&nbsp;pressure on crude&nbsp;oil prices. However,&nbsp;any continued disruption&nbsp;to energy infrastructure&nbsp;or maritime trade&nbsp;could keep prices&nbsp;elevated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump nevertheless expressed&nbsp;confidence that the&nbsp;conflict would end&nbsp;soon and that&nbsp;conditions in the&nbsp;region would improve, ultimately allowing oil&nbsp;prices to come&nbsp;down.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DUBLIN:&nbsp;US President Donald&nbsp;Trump has said&nbsp;that the war&nbsp;involving Iran will&nbsp;end very soon, after which oil&nbsp;prices are expected&nbsp;to decline.
