US Energy Secretary Wright says we're going to continue to attack Iran and what we're doing now is ensuring the flow of oil, gas and other products through the Strait of Hormuz with or without Iran's cooperation

The comments from US Energy Secretary Wright indicate a firm US stance on Iran, suggesting ongoing military pressure while attempting to secure vital energy supplies through the Strait of Hormuz. This could lead to heightened tensions in the region, impacting oil prices and energy markets significantly, while also affecting currency markets, especially for oil-exporting nations. The potential for escalated conflict may create volatility in commodities such as crude oil and gold, which often serve as safe havens in times of geopolitical uncertainty.
