Besent: "50 days of price increases can buy 50 years of Iran's nuclear weapons"

According to Kim Shi quoted NBC News, U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessant said: "I think the American people understand that after 50 days-I don't want to frame the time too rigidly, but let's set it at 50 days-prices will eventually fall;<br /> In return, we will get 50 years of peace, an Iranian regime without nuclear weapons. Thanks to President Trump, the American people are beginning to understand that without security, there can be no prosperity."<br /> Asked if this meant that prices would start to fall after 50 days, Besent said: "I was just giving an example. I don't know exactly whether it will be 30 days, 50 days, or 100 days, but it can be exchanged for 50 years of peace in the Middle East and the weakening of the Iranian regime."
