White House Press Secretary says getting Iran's nuclear fuel is an option on the table; China agreed to postpone the Trump visit and will get dates as soon as possible, they are working on a date.
What it means
The comments from the White House Press Secretary indicate a potential shift in U.S. foreign policy towards Iran's nuclear capabilities, which could heighten tensions in the Middle East. Additionally, the postponement of Trump's visit to China suggests uncertainty in U.S.-China relations, potentially impacting global markets. Such geopolitical developments could influence risk sentiment, affecting currencies like the USD and JPY, along with oil prices due to fears regarding supply disruptions.
