Amazing stuff. Learning by doing. Q: "Why not build a LNG ship here?" A: "The cost of building an LNG ship in Asia is ~$260M. It costs about $1B here." Q: "So why can't shipbuilders just use American steel?" A: "When we put tariffs on imported steel, it drives the prices of steel up. What we know today is that American steel is about twice as much as steel in China." Q: "So what you are saying is when the price of steel goes up because of tariffs, then the American steel manufacturers hike the price of steel? 🤯"

The U.S. wants Iran to make 6 commitments: 1️⃣ No missile program for 5 years. 2️⃣ Zero uranium enrichment. 3️⃣ Decommissioning of nuclear reactors. 4️⃣ Arms control treaties with regional countries. 5️⃣ No financing for regional proxies. 6️⃣ Strict outside observation protocols around the creation and use of centrifuges.
