1
President Trump has again threatened Iran,
2
demanding Tehran act quickly to agree a peace deal amidst stalled negotiations.
3
Writing on social media, Donald Trump said the clock was ticking
4
and the Iranians should move fast or nothing would be left of them.
5
Time is of the essence.
6
Well, the message came as the president was due to speak with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday.
7
Iranian media, meanwhile,
8
reported the U.S has failed to make any concrete concessions in its response to Tehran's latest proposal to end the conflict.
9
Our North America correspondent Joel Gunter has more.
10
There is a sense that negotiations between Iran and America are now very much at a standstill.
11
The two sides have been passing these memos,
12
essentially, back and forth, trying to find some common ground for negotiations,
13
but making seemingly no progress.
14
President Trump said that he had ripped up the latest Iranian offer after reading just one line.
15
And Iranian state media reported today that the latest U.S offer had contained no serious concessions.
16
Now we have this threat from President Trump to wipe out Iran.
17
It echoes that terrible threat he made last month to wipe out the country's entire civilization.
18
And there are reports that both the U.S and Israel are preparing new attack plans.
19
And we saw this morning a drone strike at a nuclear facility in the UAE.
20
No radiation risk, apparently, and no one blamed,
21
but certainly contributing to a sense of rising tensions.
22
Now, President Trump has made these kind of threats before,
23
of course, and then back down.
24
But it reflects a really serious and apparently growing frustration
25
that he has been unable to extricate himself from this unfinished
26
and unpopular war with anything he can really sell back home as a win.
27
And there is also no sense at the moment that the economic hardship for ordinary Americans is going away.
28
Thanks to Joel for that.
29
Now, the price of oil remains elevated.
30
International benchmark crude futures priced now at around $111 a barrel,
31
something that is being felt in economies right around the world,
32
of course, amid rising concerns in energy markets as the summer season with its elevated fuel demand approaches.
33
Sally Bunda is with me here.
34
Hi, Sally.
35
So what do we read into this current price?
36
Well, I mean, it's just gone below $111, actually.
37
So we basically saw the price of oil spike a little,
38
up some 2% in overnight trading following that post on social media put there by President Trump,
39
because the concern is that the stalemate continues between Washington and Tehran.
40
There is no progress.
41
And once again, the president is putting out some very bold warnings to Iran on.
42
And all the music that we're getting in financial markets is that we're stuck.
43
The Strait of Hormuz is shut and therefore oil is not going to be flowing anytime soon.
44
And that's a real concern.
45
And therefore, we see the price of oil go up.
46
Interestingly, we've got G7 finance ministers gathering very soon today in Paris.
47
We can bring you some live pictures now of preparations for that.
48
We've seen Christine Lagarde arrive already.
49
She's the head of the European Central Bank.
50
We've seen France's finance ministers speaking to the press they're the host
51
so it's central bank governors and finance ministers
52
and they're going to be talking about this very problem the the strait is shut tall tents
53
and purposes and that has inflationary pressure on their economies
54
but all economies globally
55
and what can they do about it though they'll be there
56
talking about it what levers can they pull well exactly Lewis at the end of the day they can't reopen
57
that straight if anybody could President Trump would have tried
58
that one already what they're talking about is okay what can we do
59
if this is even more prolonged than we expect what emergency
60
measures can we put in place what reserves have we got available to us
61
and what can we do to support households and businesses in the meantime
62
and as far as Rachel Reeves is concerned she already promised
63
last week should be announcing something this week for help for households and businesses.
64
But I mean inventories around the world are getting lower
65
and lower with every day that goes by
66
and for some economies around the world certainly in Southeast Asia I mean they're net oil importers
67
so they are really feeling the pain at the moment.
68
We'll have a lot more on this in business.
69
Sally thank you very much for that.

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
