On the other hand, Iranian officials are openly threatening the $200 mark as a consequence for waging war against the Islamic Republic. The US President has been briefed by the Energy Secretary and major oil and gas players about the price dynamics. The introduction of emergency measures was also considered by the Trump administration. An energy company representative who chose to remain anonymous called the situation “all hands on deck mode.” All of this was done to discuss the consequences of a fallout from oil prices reaching $200 per barrel. A source told Politico that the US government is now thinking about all options to reduce energy prices. However, a White House representative denied reports that the US believes oil prices will reach $200 per barrel. The conflicting situation indicates that the major energy players and high-ranking officials are scrambling for a solution. The war has now entered its fifth week with Trump threatening further strikes on Iran." ** Become a TDR YouTube Member: http://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport/join Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT/ Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Damage Report on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedamagereport?lang=en Follow The Damage Report on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/thedamagereport/ Follow The Damage Report on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks 260402__DR03OilPricesSurge
