TRANSNEFT TO REDIRECT OIL FROM BALTIC PORTS: IFX

Donald Trump rejected a proposal from Benjamin Netanyahu to jointly call for Iranian public protests, citing risks of mass casualties, according to U.S. and Israeli sources. Trump said, “Why the hell should we tell people to take to the streets when they'll just get mowed down.” Netanyahu argued recent Israeli strikes, including killings of senior Iranian officials, created an अवसर for unrest. Few protests followed. U.S. officials said Trump views regime change as a “bonus,” while Netanyahu prioritizes fostering an uprising. Israeli Ambassador Yechiel Leiter said degrading the regime could enable Iranians to “take charge of their own lives.”
