00:00:00.000 Trump warns China will have big problems if it ships weapons to Iran, 0.70
00:00:05.140 but insists he doesn't care about peace talks as we win regardless.
00:00:12.260 Go ahead, Rob.
00:00:13.720 China is preparing to ship weapons to Iran. 0.52
00:00:17.060 Well, if China does that, China's going to have big problems, okay?
00:00:21.420 Yeah, so when you see this story, now he's also saying he doesn't care.
00:00:26.000 There's another clip because of that clip, Rob, that you just played,
00:00:28.580 There's a few of them that he goes a little bit deeper into.
00:00:32.320 Trump warned, obviously, China.
00:00:34.140 The president's caution comes after several news outlets have reported that China is preparing to send air defense systems to Tehran in the coming weeks.
00:00:41.380 If China does that, China is going to have big problems.
00:00:44.100 U.S. intelligence sources told New York Times and CNN that Beijing is shipping shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missile systems known as MANPADS through third countries to mask their origins.
00:00:54.680 A spokesperson for the Chinese embassy in China, in Washington, denied the accusations in a statement to CNN.
00:01:02.020 China has never provided weapons to any party to the conflict.
00:01:05.740 The information in question is untrue.
00:01:07.800 The spokesperson said it comes as peace talks between U.S. and Iran began in Pakistan's capital city Islamabad on Saturday.
00:01:16.060 Trump acknowledged very deep negotiations but told Reuters no matter what happens during the talks,
00:01:20.860 the United States has already won.
00:01:22.900 Regardless of what happens, we win.
00:01:24.400 We totally defeated that country, and so let's see what happens.
00:01:27.980 Maybe they make a deal.
00:01:29.620 Maybe they don't.
00:01:30.380 From the standpoint of America, we win regardless.
00:01:33.060 Tom?
00:01:34.020 So there's two ways to ship a weapon.
00:01:37.060 One is finish a missile, a bullet, a gun, and send it to the guys. 0.79
00:01:42.160 Iran-Contras, right? 0.89
00:01:43.360 Just send them the guns. 1.00
00:01:44.480 Drop them off.
00:01:45.100 The other way is you send raw materials that are critical.
00:01:48.520 And what I was reading over the weekend, Pat, is that the U.S. and the U.K. are now,
00:01:55.820 and I think it was the CIA found it and MI6 confirmed it.
00:01:59.520 That was what I read about a chemical called ammonium perchlorate or sodium perchlorate,
00:02:07.500 which is key rocket fuel.
00:02:10.540 this it's basically rocket fuel chemical that you need so that you can send send out rockets or
00:02:19.680 missiles and that is what is huge and when people say china's shipping weapons there's the anti
00:02:29.620 aircraft system that they sent to um uh venezuela and remember we jammed it remember the stories on
00:02:36.320 that path that the americans jammed the chinese system that so the system that they had did they
00:02:41.520 have the best one don't know and so china was reportedly also providing that system to iran
00:02:48.560 and also now they're shipping chemicals that are used to make um the the propellant the fuel for
00:02:56.700 rockets and so china is definitely in this and i think the president said what's going on if they're
00:03:02.240 really doing this they're going to be in big trouble but just remember you don't have to ship
00:03:05.800 the guns sometimes you can ship ship the powder and this is terrible this stuff is this allows
00:03:12.700 them to make the the the rockets how long you think he does how long do you think because i'm
00:03:17.540 it's almost a given they're both kind of helping like on the low till he does something or like
00:03:22.960 it's out in the open where he's gonna actually act on china or russia because i haven't heard
00:03:27.140 anything from them like these are these are the little stories that pop up and you know china's
00:03:31.220 doing it how long do you think till trump like because he looks serious right there when he's 0.53
00:03:34.920 talking about if they're doing it it's going to be bad for them do you do you actually think
00:03:40.000 they're providing weapons to iran do you think they're doing i think they're on the well what
00:03:44.000 is your percentage of them providing weapons to iran directly or a hundred percent that they're
00:03:47.960 providing these chemicals we've found it the mi6 cia apparently found it now we have all kinds of
00:03:53.480 articles on it so it's a hundred percent that they're sending rocket fuel right number one
00:03:57.960 number two are they i'm probably around 80 that they're sending you know the any aircraft and
00:04:04.140 radar systems because it's it's easy and that's what they were supplying to venezuela so why
00:04:09.940 wouldn't supply there anything beyond that i'm only about 25 because i think that's like a red
00:04:15.900 line and do you think china wants to cross that red line but but if you're spending i'm lower on
00:04:22.220 the actual missile bullet and bomb but but if you're sending the fuel to launch these rockets
00:04:28.240 or the missiles it's almost like you know me like the loading the gun thing you're putting the gun 0.95
00:04:32.680 powder and the bullet to shoot the guy. But I didn't
00:04:34.620 send you the cannon. Yeah, but that's still, but
00:04:36.460 if I find out that you're sending them the
00:04:38.400 gunpowder and they're shooting my, you know what I mean?
00:04:40.820 That's a whole different situation.
00:04:42.660 You're still actively involved 0.93
00:04:44.460 in killing people. So they can play that 0.88
00:04:46.580 little game, but what do you think?
00:04:48.400 I don't know. I mean, look, Humberto just
00:04:50.460 sent a message. The whole 90% of
00:04:52.540 the oil that China is getting is from Iran. 1.00
00:04:54.860 So, who is a bigger
00:04:56.420 partner? How do you manage the two partners?
00:04:58.720 One is giving you oil.
00:05:00.400 The other one, you sell a bunch of products to.
00:05:02.360 Your number one customer is America, that you make hundreds of billions of dollars of exporting.
00:05:08.720 And so do I want to compromise that relationship with, you know, U.S.?
00:05:14.140 But do I feel confidently in my ability to low-key, underground, get stuff to Iran without anybody finding out?
00:05:20.720 Don't forget when the Huawei's founder's daughter, who was the CFO, was in Canada doing deals with Iran,
00:05:26.560 and Trump put 100% sanction on Huawei, and Huawei disappeared.
00:05:30.580 A lot of people used to have Huawei phones in America.
00:05:33.380 So they are shifty. 1.00
00:05:35.100 The Chinese are shifty on how to get in and how to deliver something. 1.00
00:05:39.280 I wouldn't be surprised if they're doing it. 1.00
00:05:41.280 But if they do and they're in the middle of all these negotiations, I don't know if it's a smart move by their end.
00:05:46.940 Adam.
00:05:48.840 Two things are going on here.
00:05:50.480 Number one, China looks at Iran as one thing, a transactional partner.
00:05:54.780 They're using them from oil.
00:05:55.920 They've basically been evading sanctions, Iran, by basically selling discounted oil to China.
00:06:03.080 They got a billion and something people that they got to have energy for.
00:06:07.100 They're shutting down the Strait of Hormuz.
00:06:08.720 You think it affects Iran?
00:06:09.920 It affects China, too. 0.82
00:06:11.260 Big time. 0.84
00:06:11.700 It affects Southeast Asia. 0.97
00:06:13.420 It affects half the Middle East.
00:06:15.600 We don't rely on the Strait of Hormuz.
00:06:17.580 So China's looking at the situation in Iran being like, oh, man.
00:06:22.900 We're losing our oil.
00:06:24.280 Oil prices going up.
00:06:25.380 Who knows what deal they're cutting with Russia, I'm sorry, regarding oil.
00:06:30.160 By the way, wasn't Trump and Xi supposed to meet coming up?
00:06:35.660 They were supposed to meet in March.
00:06:37.020 They were supposed to meet in March.
00:06:37.860 But they didn't.
00:06:38.560 But they didn't, why?
00:06:39.420 No, he said they're going to delay to May.
00:06:41.040 Why?
00:06:42.340 Because of this war.
00:06:44.000 So now Trump is using the straight-up Hormuz as leverage, saying,
00:06:46.720 before I even come speak to you.
00:06:48.060 Because of Iran, because of tariffs, it was a couple things.
00:06:49.800 Of course. 0.95
00:06:50.220 It was kind of going on.
00:06:50.800 But the center point, the linchpin, was what's going on in Iran.
00:06:54.600 so now you have China basically saying
00:06:56.700 how do I literally fuel
00:06:58.160 my economy I have a billion plus
00:07:00.620 people that I got to take care of they got
00:07:02.600 their own issues for years we've been here 1.00
00:07:04.660 and China's on the rise there's only one 0.78
00:07:06.720 country that's on the rise and it's the hottest
00:07:08.740 country in the world right now United
00:07:10.600 States
00:07:11.040 that was it that was it that's all I got
00:07:14.380 okay all right well let's go to
00:07:16.500 Orban back up a second
00:07:18.540 you want me to keep talking
00:07:19.780 you want me to keep going good
00:07:22.500 job that's my point I wrapped it up
00:07:24.220 When we set out to create a shoe that blends comfort, function, and luxury,
00:07:30.480 we had the choice to make it fast.
00:07:32.760 We had the choice to make it cheap.
00:07:34.740 We chose neither.
00:07:36.380 Instead, we chose Tuscaneiro.
00:07:38.700 We chose true Italian craftsmanship, each pair touched by 50 skilled hands.
00:07:44.140 We chose patience, spending two years perfecting every detail,
00:07:48.040 and we chose the finest quality at every step.
00:07:50.920 Introducing the Future Looks Bright collection.
00:07:55.240 Not rushed, not disposable, not ordinary.
00:07:59.520 Rather intentional, luxurious, timeless.
