Hello, I'm Lewis Vaughan-Jones.
2
This is the Iran War Today,
3
our daily briefing,
4
bringing you right up to date with all you need to know on day 75 of the US-Israel war with Iran.
5
Let's start with some of today's key developments.
6
President Trump arrives in China for talks with President Xi.
7
The Iran war is likely to come up.
8
But as he left, the U.S.
9
President Donald Trump told reporters he didn't need China's help to resolve the conflict.
10
I don't think we need any help with Iran,
11
to be honest with you.
12
They're defeated militarily and they'll either do the right thing or we'll finish the job.
13
The International Energy Agency warns the global oil supply will not
14
meet total demand this year as the war continues to impact Middle East oil production.
15
Lebanon says Israel has targeted cars travelling on a coastal motorway in its latest airstrikes despite the ceasefire.
16
Israel says it's striking Hezbollah targets.
17
And we find out why the packs of some of Japan's biggest snacks are turning black and white because of the war.
18
We're going to start in China,
19
where President Trump has arrived in Beijing for talks with his Chinese counterpart, President Xi.
20
The discussions are expected to cover the war in Iran,
21
but as he left Washington,
22
President Trump said he didn't need China's help in ending the conflict.
23
While Trump was greeted by hundreds of schoolchildren and the Chinese vice president on his arrival there in Beijing for the summit,
24
during his two-day visit, the global superpowers are expected to discuss the war in Iran,
25
which has caused a considerable strain on China's economy.
26
Despite Mr Trump's claims,
27
the US has been putting pressure on Beijing to use whatever leverage it has over its longtime friend
28
and ally Tehran to push it towards the negotiating table.
29
In a moment, we'll be live in Washington with our White House reporter Bernd Deboosman.
30
But let's start in Beijing with our China correspondent Stephen McDonnell.
31
Here's his assessment of what might come up up.
32
Before coming to China, Donald Trump said he was going to raise the Iran war issue with Xi Jinping.
33
Then suddenly, just before leaving the US,
34
he said, oh, we don't need China to fix our problems in the Middle East.
35
It seems he was watering down expectations,
36
possibly fearing he was going to get nothing on this.
37
Now, in theory, you can understand why Donald Trump might have said to Xi Jinping,
38
Iran is a key trading partner of yours.
39
How about you lean on them with a view to getting them to reopen the Strait of Hormuz?
40
After all, this is hurting your economy as well.
41
Well, there are several problems with this.
42
Number one, China blames the US and Israel for starting the war and might say,
43
well, you created this global economic chaos.
44
Why should we clean it up?
45
Number two, China could say we've already been speaking to Iran.
46
We've already been calling on them to be part of a negotiated settlement.
47
It's just that the terms that China
48
and Iran might find acceptable are not the same as what Donald Trump might find acceptable.
49
Number three, China wants a proper ceasefire before it gets involved anymore in the Iran issue.
50
And number four, crucially, Xi Jinping could say to Donald Trump,
51
look, we think Iran has the right to a civilian nuclear electricity capability.
52
And that's not something that the US and Israel might go along with.
53
So you can see that over the coming days,
54
Donald Trump and Xi Jinping have a lot to speak about when it comes to the Middle East.
55
Thanks to Steve for that.
56
Well, Iran has restated its plan to maintain control of the Strait of Hormuz.
57
A military spokesperson said this would generate significant revenue and strengthen Iran's international influence.
58
Speaking in Washington, just before he flew to Beijing,
59
President Trump was asked by reporters what his red lines were when it came to maybe ending the ceasefire with Iran.
60
Well, we're going to see,
61
And we'll be thinking about it on the flight,
62
and we'll be thinking about it for the next little while.
63
But we've beaten their military very soundly.
64
That's over with.
65
The blockade is very effective.
66
It's been 100 percent effective.
67
And one way or the other,
68
it's going to work out very well.
69
It's going to work out very well.
70
I think you're going to have so much oil,
71
you're going to have a gusher of oil like you've never had before.
72
So when oil goes up a little bit,
73
I thought it would go up much more.
74
If you go back three,
75
four months ago when we were contemplating,
76
we assumed oil would go much higher.
77
Yesterday it was at $99.
78
And if you think about it,
79
I would have taken that all day long because it's very simple.
80
Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.
81
They will not have a nuclear weapon.
82
They know that.
83
They've agreed to that.
84
And then that's not what they said to me when it came to pay.
85
We don't play games.
86
They're not going to have a nuclear weapon.
87
Well, President Trump also posted on social media attacks on US media's reporting on Iran.
88
He said, when the fake news says that the Iranian enemy is doing well militarily against us,
89
it's virtual treason in that it is such a false and even preposterous statement.
90
This post on Truth Social came after the New York Times reported that his administration's portrayal
91
of a shattered Iranian military was at odds with what U.S intelligence agencies were saying behind closed doors.
92
Let's cross live now to Washington.
93
Our White House reporter, Bern de Poussman, is there.
94
Hi, Bern.
95
So Donald Trump arrived in China.
96
Could we see some behind-the-scenes negotiations on Iran here?
97
Well, despite what we just heard President Trump say,
98
the war in Iran has already cast quite a large shadow over the trip to China.
99
It was already delayed once when combat operations were still underway.
100
And despite Trump saying he doesn't need China,
101
White House officials have very clearly told reporters that it's something that will be brought up.
102
The White House and the Trump administration more broadly hope
103
that China's own economic ties with Iran
104
and their necessity for Iranian oil will prompt them to kind of lean on Tehran to,
105
A, reopen the Strait of Hormuz,
106
and, B, come to a deal that the U.S sees as at least something workable or worth discussing.
107
There's also the issue of sanctions.
108
Already several Chinese-linked people and several Chinese-linked firms have been sanctioned for helping,
109
allegedly helping, Iran's war effort.
110
And that's something that President Trump,
111
according to officials, is very keen to bring up with his Chinese counterpart.
112
And, Bernd, I mentioned that message that Donald Trump posted again, yet again criticizing the media?
113
Well, this is something that stretches back even before the war in Iran.
114
Last year, after Operation Midnight Hammer,
115
he reacted extremely angrily to any reporting in the media that Iran's nuclear facilities weren't completely obliterated,
116
as he had said at the time.
117
It has picked up some pace in recent weeks,
118
though he's been very upset with reporting that suggests
119
that Iran's military has not been degraded as much as he tells reporters it is.
120
And now we're starting to see kind of action from the administration.
121
The acting attorney general, Todd Blanche,
122
said reporters shouldn't be surprised if they receive subpoenas because of national security reporting.
123
We know the Wall Street Journal has already received subpoenas.
124
And I think if the Trump administration continues to be so displeased with the reporting and displeased,
125
more importantly, with the leaking and the sources from the administration,
126
we're likely to see many more of those subpoenas in the coming weeks and months.
127
Interesting.
128
And just across the U.S.,
129
of course, concerns will be about gas prices,
130
prices at the gas stations.
131
And that's something, presumably, therefore,
132
that will be on Donald Trump's mind.
133
It will be, even though yesterday when he was leaving for China from the White House,
134
President Trump said that he doesn't really think about American economic concerns when it comes to the war with Iran.
135
He thinks that's a price worth paying for Iran not to have a nuclear weapon.
136
But at the same time,
137
it comes at a very tricky time.
138
Polls show that many Americans are very concerned with the price of petrol at the pump,
139
for example, and the economy more broadly.
140
And with the midterms coming up in November,
141
many Republican lawmakers, many of whom are up for reelection or up for election,
142
will be facing tremendous pressure from their own constituents that those prices be brought down.
143
And that's something they've expressed to the White House and the Trump administration.
144
And any suggestion that President Trump is responsible for those prices remaining elevated,
145
that's something that Americans will be very concerned about and which President Trump is very keenly aware of.
146
Thank you.
147
Next, a new warning about the supply of oil because of the war.
148
The International Energy Agency says the global oil supply will not meet total demand this year.
149
The conflict continues to have an impact on Middle East oil production,
150
along with a blockade, of course,
151
with the Strait of Hormuz.
152
The organization also says that countries are having to dip into stocks of oil they have at a record pace.
153
The warning came as European energy ministers met in Cyprus to talk about ways of easing the burden of high fuel prices.
154
Our discussions here today are vital.
155
The situation is critical.
156
We need to ensure that energy crisis,
157
transportation risks should not undermine our competitiveness and should not undermine our economic stability.
158
Let's go live to New York.
159
Our business correspondent Samira Hussain is there.
160
Hi, Samira.
161
So just give us a bit of detail on what the International Energy Agency is saying.
162
They're basically saying that, look,
163
we're not getting a lot of the oil that we normally would through the Strait of Hormuz.
164
That we know.
165
But then they're also saying the amount of oil that people had stockpiled,
166
that countries had stockpiled, well,
167
countries are now dipping into those stockpiles and they're using that oil faster and faster.
168
So it means that there's just so much less buffer for any kind of emergency.
169
And they're saying that, look,
170
countries are already implementing measures.
171
And we know that in Asia,
172
for example, India, we've seen a request by the prime minister for people to work from home and to not travel,
173
not travel internationally.
174
We're seeing that airlines are cutting flights.
175
We're seeing increases to energy taxes in a lot of countries to try
176
and make up for that because the energy crisis is serious.
177
And now the IEA is pricing in as if the war were to end by the end of June.
178
Of course, all of this will change if the war continues after that.
179
And Donald Trump obviously worried about the price of gas at the pumps.
180
What about the markets?
181
Well, it's questionable whether Donald Trump is in fact worried about the price at the pumps.
182
On the one hand, you do hear that the president is considering to cut the taxes on gasoline at the pump.
183
It's about, you know, 18 percent at the moment.
184
But on the other hand,
185
you hear him making comments like those
186
that he made at the White House talking about how he doesn't really think about the finances of Americans
187
and that the price of oil is high, but only temporarily.
188
If you look at financial markets,
189
they're really concerned about these stockpiles and what that means going forward.
190
And now the United States is starting to see some economic data
191
that is showing just how much of an impact the war in Iran is having here domestically
192
and that is really what's driving markets into the red yesterday
193
and today and
194
that is certainly something president trump will pay attention to okay
195
thank you samira there's been another day of israeli airstrikes in
196
southern lebanon lebanon's health ministry says at least 12 people were
197
killed including two children in the south of the country ministry
198
said the attacks had targeted cars travelling on a coastal motorway despite the ceasefire in Lebanon.
199
Israel's military said it was striking Hezbollah targets and had issued evacuation warnings for several villages.
200
Lebanese officials say more than 400 people have been killed since the truce came into force last month.
201
Israeli
202
and Lebanese officials are expected to meet again in Washington on Thursday to try to find a way to end the war.
203
Finally today, we've heard a lot about the economic impact of the war, of course.
204
While in Japan it's having an effect on crisp packets.
205
The country's biggest snack maker,
206
Calbi, will temporarily switch some of its coloured packaging to black and white.
207
It says the war and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz has made it more difficult to obtain the right inks.
208
Our Asia business correspondent Nick Marsh has the details.
209
Would you buy this packet of crisps?
210
No, it's not a glitch on your screen.
211
Japan's biggest snap maker is switching a bunch of its packaging from colour to black and white.
212
Why?
213
Because the Iran war has caused an ink shortage.
214
To make ink, you need something called nafta,
215
which in turn comes from crude oil.
216
Millions of barrels of which,
217
as we know, are currently stuck near the Strait of Hormuz.
218
Iran's been controlling that for the past couple of months in response to attacks from the US and Israel.
219
Now Japan gets 90% of its crude oil and 40% of its nafta from the Middle East,
220
so ink prices have shot up.
221
Black ink's generally cheaper than coloured,
222
so Calbi's decided to make the switch.
223
Now is it a marketing stunt?
224
Some analysts say that it could be,
225
but either way you're going to find 14 of these black
226
and white products in stores in Japan by the end of the month.
227
Thanks to Nick for that.
228
And I just want to bring you these live pictures that are coming in to us here from Tehran,
229
the capital of Iran.
230
People out on the streets,
231
flags are out, they're off.
232
They're giving a send-off to their World Cup football men's team,
233
which are heading to the Football World Cup,
234
which gets underway in about a month's time in the US, Mexico and Canada.
235
So plenty of people out on the streets there to wish them well.
236
Now whether you are joining us on YouTube,
237
TikTok, Sounds, radio or TV, thanks for your company.
238
We'll be back at the same time tomorrow with the Iran war today.

Kontext & Hintergrund
In der aktuellen Berichterstattung über den Iran-Konflikt betont der US-Präsident Donald Trump, dass er sich nicht auf die Hilfe Chinas verlässt, um die Situation zu lösen. Dies geschah während seiner Ankunft in China für Gespräche mit Präsident Xi Jinping, wo die angespannten Beziehungen und der Krieg im Iran im Mittelpunkt der Diskussionen stehen sollten. Dies ist besonders relevant, da der Krieg im Iran erhebliche Auswirkungen auf die globalen Märkte, insbesondere auf die Ölversorgung, hat, die von vielen Ländern, einschließlich China, sowie den USA, intensiv verfolgt wird. Trump kürzt die Erwartungen bezüglich möglicher chinesischer Unterstützung und gibt an, dass die USA die Kontrolle über Iran übernehmen können, ohne auf Hilfe angewiesen zu sein.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
