NEW from @JoeSquawk's exclusive with @SecScottBessent: U.S. and China "are gonna start talking. We’re gonna set up a protocol in terms of how do we go forward with best practices for AI to make sure non-state actors don’t get a hold of these models...” cnbc.com/2026/05/14/us-…

Netanyahu has now publicly revealed what Iran's security services long ago conveyed to our leadership. Enmity with the Great People of Iran is a foolish gamble. Collusion with Israel in doing so: unforgivable. Those colluding with Israel to sow division will be held to account.

يتابع العالم الزيارة المهمة للرئيس الأمريكي إلى الصين وما قد تحمله من تأثيرات على المسار الإقليمي. وفي هذا السياق، تؤكد دولة الإمارات مجددًا أهمية الحل السياسي والمسار التفاوضي، وهو ما تتمسك به في مختلف اتصالاتها. لم نسعَ إلى هذه الحرب، وعملنا مخلصين على تجنبها، ولا يمكن أن تُبنى العلاقات العربية الإيرانية في الخليج على المواجهات والصراعات، في منطقة تجمع شعوبها روابط جغرافية وتاريخية متجذرة. الدفاع عن الوطن واجب مقدس، وستحمي الإمارات سيادتها بقوة وكفاءة وثبات، لكن أولويتها وقناعتها الراسخة ستبقيان في تغليب الحلول السياسية، إيمانًا بأنها السبيل لتحقيق السلام والاستقرار والازدهار.

Analysis: Iran war hangs over Trump’s China trip — and his presidency cnbc.com/2026/05/12/tru…

.@POTUS on Iran negotiations: "We're going to see what happens. We're only making a good deal... I believe that one way or the other, it's going to be very good for the American people—and I think actually, very good for the Iranian people."

🚨🚨Trump before departing to China: "Iran will either do the right thing or we will finish the job...we are either gonna make a deal or they will be decimated"

The world is already 1 billion barrels short, because of the closure of Hormuz. 1 billion barrels. That is the arithmetic of extortion. Every day the Strait is held hostage, the costs go up... for families, farms, factories and economies around the world. Return freedom of navigation. No conditions. No delay.

“The Morning After Hormuz”: No Return to the Old Normal? @carole_nakhle joined @CNBC’s @dan_murphy to discuss how the #Iran war may reshape oil markets beyond the immediate Strait of Hormuz disruption. #OOTT crystolenergy.com/media_posts/th…

As Iran’s military desperately tries to regroup, Economic Fury will continue to deprive the regime of funding for its weapons programs, terrorist proxies, and nuclear ambitions. Treasury will continue to cut the Iranian regime off from the financial networks it uses to carry out terrorist acts and to destabilize the global economy.

.@POTUS on the ceasefire in Iran: "After reading that piece of garbage they sent us... It's on life support."

I had a call with His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan @MohamedBinZayed, President of the UAE. I condemned the recent strikes from Iran against the UAE. And we must make every effort to truly protect life in the Gulf region, which is of global importance. Against this backdrop, it is critical that our teams continue to work closely together in the area of security. I was glad to hear that Ukrainian expertise is truly helping build reliable protection for lives. We discussed continuing this work. I thanked for His Highness’s assistance in bringing our people back from Russian captivity. We count on this work to continue. We also touched upon joint energy projects. I am grateful to the UAE that our agreements are being implemented on the basis of reciprocity and that Ukraine is also receiving the support it needs, including in the energy sector. We also discussed other potential projects in various areas. Thank you!

Good discussion with @dan_murphy on CNBC today on the Iran war and what it means for oil markets. Many are discussing when markets will “return to normal” after Hormuz. I’m not convinced there will be a return to the old normal. Crises like this reshape trade flows, alliances, infrastructure priorities and geopolitical calculations. In many ways, the post-Iran-war global oil market is already emerging. The UAE - for the first time in its history - is no longer an OPEC member. That alone says a lot about the structural shifts already underway. The real challenge may not simply be managing the crisis itself, but understanding the entirely new geopolitical and energy landscape that could emerge from it. #OilMarkets #OPEC #Hormuz #EnergySecurity #Geopolitics cnbc.com/video/2026/05/…

One part of my @CNBC interview with @dan_murphy on the ongoing situation with Iran: cnbc.com/video/2026/05/…

I appreciate President Trump’s earnest efforts to seek a diplomatic solution to change the behavior of the Iranian terrorist regime. However, between their constant attacks on international shipping, the persistent attacks on our Middle Eastern allies and now a totally unacceptable response to America’s diplomatic proposal, it is in my view, time to consider changing course. Project Freedom Plus sounds pretty good right about now.
