Trump says US could stay in Iran and keep oil, like Venezuela deal

Trump said the United States could stay engaged in Iran and keep the oil, citing a Venezuela precedent as Middle East turmoil lifted market concerns.

  • On Sunday, President Donald Trump suggested from Doonbeg, Ireland, that the United States might remain in Iran to "keep the oil," drawing a parallel with a U.S. push to control a fifth of Venezuela's vast oil reserves.
  • Speaking at the Amgen Irish Open, Trump reiterated that he expects the Iran war to end this year, adding that gasoline prices would "drop like a rock" once the conflict concludes.
  • Trump claimed he would only pursue the "right deal" rather than one that was "no good," asserting that Iran has been "calling constantly" for peace talks, though Tehran has previously dismissed these claims.
  • Oil traders expect prices to rise on Monday following an attack on a Saudi oil pipeline that has roiled Middle East markets, while the President drew a parallel to the Venezuela deal announced in August.
  • Midterm elections due in the United States this November may mark the conflict's end, though Trump also introduced the alternative option of remaining engaged with Iran indefinitely.
