Trump: Perhaps we will have to let oil prices rise again

According to Jinshi reports, U.S. President Trump stated at an event in Las Vegas on August 5 local time that oil prices have recently fallen and stabilized, "we may have to let it rise again," but he "hopes it won't come to that." Trump did not further explain the meaning of this statement.

The Associated Press analysis pointed out that although Trump has repeatedly assured that the conflict with Iran is about to end, oil prices typically rise again with the resurgence of hostilities between the two sides.
