1
Right to Alex Hogan, who is live in D.C with the latest on Iran.
2
Good morning, Alex.
3
Good morning. So U.S.
4
Central Command made this announcement just hours ago,
5
saying American forces carried out strikes this weekend,
6
bombing Iranian radar and drone control sites in Gork, Iran, and Qashem Island.
7
And according to Central Command,
8
the measured and deliberate strikes occurred on Saturday
9
and Sunday in response to aggressive Iranian actions that included the shootdown of a U.S.
10
MQ-1 drone that was operating over international waters.
11
U.S fighter aircraft swiftly responded by eliminating Iranian air defenses,
12
a ground control station, and two one-way attack drones that pose clear threats to ships transiting regional waters.
13
And now Kuwait says it's intercepting incoming drone and missile fire.
14
That comes as Iran confirmed it carried out retaliatory strikes today.
15
And Iran's Revolutionary Guard today says the source of that is what it calls U.S attacks on a telecommunication tower.
16
President Trump met with advisers in the Situation Room at the White House here in Washington on Friday,
17
but had yet to make an announcement over the weekend over how to move forward.
18
Overnight, he posted on Truth Social,
19
writing in part, Iran really wants to make a deal,
20
and it will be a good one for the USA and those that are with us.
21
Both the U.S and Iran have exchanged strikes since the ceasefire started in early April.
22
It's not clear yet how these strikes will impact the ongoing negotiations to end the war that has now stretched three months.
23
Todd, Ashley.
24
Okay, Alex, thank you.
25
CENTCOM confirming the U.S military has struck more Iranian targets after the downing of an American drone as the U.S.
26
Iran ceasefire is once again tested.
27
President Trump commenting on negotiations with Tehran with Fox's Lar Trump.
28
We're making a great deal.
29
We're going to make a great deal.
30
We'll just go back and finish it off militarily.
31
We're getting what we want slowly.
32
Very tough negotiators.
33
It takes a long time.
34
I'm in no hurry.
35
I'd like to say I'm in a hurry because gasoline prices are going to come tumbling down.
36
But if you're going to be in a hurry,
37
you're not going to make a good deal.
38
and slowly but surely we're getting,
39
I think, what we want.
40
And if we don't get what we want,
41
we're going to end it a different way.
42
Joining us today to discuss this is the former deputy national security advisor for VP Cheney, Steve Yates.
43
Steve, thanks for getting up and talking to us about this.
44
You heard Trump just there say he was in no hurry to get a deal done.
45
Do you think this is what the Iranians are kind of banking on?
46
Because before you know it,
47
we're going to be in August and September,
48
then there's some midterms and we're still LEFT THESE HIGH GAS PRICES?
49
THE IRANIAN REGIME, THE REMENANTS OF IT DEFINITELY HAVE AS PART OF THEIR STRATEGY PLAYING FOR TIME.
50
BUT THE PRESIDENT IS EXERCISING A PATIENT APPROACH
51
THAT I DON'T THINK VERY MANY OF HIS CRITICS WOULD HAVE ASSUMED HE WOULD HAVE IN HIS TOOL KIT.
52
WE HAVE MAXIMUM PRESSURE FROM THE ECONOMIC POLICY SIDE OF THINGS,
53
MILITARY SIDE OF THINGS, AND HE'S TRIED TO MOVE FORWARD WITH A DIFFERENT KIND OF DIPLOMATIC STRATEGY,
54
MAKING SURE THAT ALLIES IN THE REGION ARE are prepared to carry forward what I would consider to be maintenance mode.
55
And I think what we saw over the weekend is a little bit what that maintenance mode would look like.
56
If you have remnants of a regime,
57
when you have a regime that size,
58
its military capabilities are never going to go to zero.
59
But when they act out in ways that challenge freedom of navigation,
60
use the tentacles of terror,
61
or look like they're going back to resume the nuclear program,
62
then they'll be hit by us or an ally to try to keep things on course.
63
So I think that's what the president's gradualism is aimed at.
64
I THINK IT'S A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT ARE GOING TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT.
65
I CERTAINLY HOPE THAT THE STRAIGHT IS OPEN VERY,
66
VERY SOON AND THAT THE PRESSURE CAMPAIGN IS WORKING.
67
AT THIS POINT, IT'S HARD TO WATCH FROM THE OUTSIDE BECAUSE WE JUST CAN'T HAVE CERTAINTY.
68
BUT I THINK THE CORRELATION OF POWER IS THE RIGHT MIX AT THIS POINT.
69
YOU KNOW, STEVE, A FEW DIFFERENT OUTLETS REPORTING THIS WEEKEND THAT,
70
YOU KNOW, THIS MOVE IS MORE ABOUT SPECIFICS OF HOW THE U.S.
71
GETS THE MATERIAL AND THE TIMING AND THAT'S IN THE REFERENCE TO ENRICHED URANIUM.
72
AND THEY'RE ALSO WANTING TO AMEND SOME OF THE WORDING AND LANGUAGE AROUND OPENING THE STRAIGHT OF HORMOS.
73
HOW IMPORTANT IS THAT?
74
WELL, I THINK FACTS ON THE GROUND ARE GOING TO MATTER MUCH MORE THAN THE WORDING OF AGREEMENTS.
75
AND THAT'S GOING TO COME ULTIMATELY BY THIS COALITION OF POWER
76
THAT THE PRESIDENT IS EXERCISING AND BASICALLY FORCING THESE THINGS TO MOVE FORWARD THE RIGHT WAY.
77
WE HAVE MORE TIME WHEN IT COMES TO TRYING TO DEAL WITH THE ULTIMATE DISPOSITION OF THIS VERY DEGRADED NUCLEAR PROGRAM.
78
IT'S A CONCERN, BUT IT'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT IT'S MUCH,
79
MUCH MORE IMPORTANT THAT WE CONTINUE TO DEGRADE THE IRGC,
80
THIS MILITARY CAPABILITY OF IRAN,
81
AND MAKE SURE THAT IS IN CHECK.
82
THAT IS SORT OF THE TALLEST TENT POLE IN THE IRANIAN TENT AT THIS POINT.
83
THE CIVILIAN LEADERSHIP HAS DEGRADED.
84
THE MULAHS, WE HAVEN'T EVEN HAD A PROOF OF LIFE OUT OF THE NEW IYATOLLA IN A WHILE.
85
IT'S THE IRGC THAT WE'RE TRYING TO INFLUENCE AND CONTAIN AT THIS POINT.
86
I THINK
87
THAT HAS TO BE MISSION THE FEDERAL IS THE FEDERAL INCREASING
88
THE FEDERAL IS THE FEDERAL IS THE FEDERAL IS THE NUMBER ONE.
89
YOU KNOW, WE TALK A LOT ABOUT THE STRAIGHT OF HORMOOSE AND THE NEWS MEDIA AND POLITICIANS,
90
THEY ASSUME THAT THE AVERAGE AMERICAN KNOWS WHAT THOSE WORDS MEAN AND WHAT THEY ARE,
91
BUT IN ALL REALITY THEY DON'T.
92
SO PAINT US A PICTURE IF YOU COULD QUICKLY,
93
IF WE DON'T HAVE A DEAL MADE BY SEPTEMBER,
94
AUGUST, AROUND THAT TIME, WHAT THE NEXT YEAR COULD LOOK LIKE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO BE INFLATION.
95
WHAT IS THE FEDERAL OF AMERICA?
96
THE STRAIGHT OF HORMUS IS A FAR AWAY PLACE.
97
PEOPLE CAN BE EXCUSED FOR NOT THINKING ABOUT IT.
98
IT'S A VERY NARROW PASSAGE WHERE A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF OIL,
99
NATURAL GAS AND OTHER COMMODITIES WILL TRANSIT.
100
IT TENDS TO FEED WORLD MARKETS.
101
THAT MATTERS TO AMERICANS EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE AN ABUNDANCE.
102
IF WORLD PRICES ARE HIGH,
103
THE ABUNDANCE WE HAVE WILL GET SOLD IF THE PRESIDENT GETS THE RIGHT ALLIES,
104
OUR ARAB ALLIES AND OTHERS TO STEP IN AND EXECUTE ON WHAT MAINTENANCE NEEDS TO LOOK LIKE IN THIS REGION,
105
THAT FREES AMERICA UP TO FOCUS ON OUR PROSPERITY,
106
OTHER CHALLENGES AROUND THE WORLD,
107
SAY REVISIONIST CHINA TRYING TO CHALLENGE US ON ECONOMIC COMPETITION AND NATIONAL SECURITY CHALLENGES IN THE INDO-PACIFIC.
108
YOU KNOW, AND THEN THERE'S ALSO THE QUESTION,
109
JUST BECAUSE TERRAN AGREES TO THIS AND IRAN AGREES TO THIS,
110
WHO'S TO SAY THEY'RE EVEN GOING TO STICK TO IT?
111
THE COMPANY IS NOT GOING TO GO.
112
DO YOU THINK THEY ARE GOING TO GO TO THE COMPANY?
113
MY ASSUMPTION IS THAT THEY WON'T.
114
THAT'S WHY I THINK THAT THE COALITION OF POWER HAS TO REMAIN IN PLACE.
115
WE CAN CHANGE THE BALANCE OF THAT IN TERMS OF THE EXPENSE AND THE PRESENCE OF AMERICA.
116
BUT THE UNITED STATES UNDER PRESIDENT TRUMP'S LEADERSHIP HAS PROVEN THAT WE CAN COME
117
FROM THIS SIDE OF THE WORLD AND STRIKE DECISIVELY TARGETS ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD WITHOUT THEM KNOWING WE'RE COMING OR GOING.
118
AND IF WE ARM AND WORK WITH OUR I think the last piece of this has to be the insurers.
119
That's where the financial part of the world has to make
120
it affordable for the shippers to take the necessary risk to actually move their cargo.
121
That has been, I think,
122
a missing link in the last couple of months.
123
It has to happen soon.
124
Okay.
125
Steve Yates, thank you so much for your time this morning.
126
We appreciate it.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
