Trump Targets Oil Giants, Says Iran Talks Are Its Last Chance
US President Donald Trump has criticized major oil companies Chevron and Exxon Mobil for earning excessive profits due to high oil prices. Speaking at the Oval Office, he stated that 'they made too much money, too much money' and suggested they should return some of their profits to the public.
The comments came as Trump also announced that new talks with Iran are its 'last chance' to make a deal and avoid further escalation of US strikes on the country. The president expects negotiations to begin in the next day or two, focusing on reopening the Strait of Hormuz and addressing concerns about Iran's nuclear program.
Trump has previously criticized Iran's leadership for being 'unbelievably duplicitous' and accused them of making false claims about their meetings with Oman. He maintained that despite Iran's denials, talks are underway to prevent the country from developing nuclear weapons.
