[00:00:00]What is your message to President Xi as it relates to the Iran war?

[00:00:04]>> Well, I think number one, we're going to have a long talk about it. Uh, I think he's been relatively good to be honest with you. You look at the blockade, no problems. They get a lot of their oil from that area. We've had no problem.

[00:00:18]And he's been a a friend of mine. He's been somebody that we get along with.

[00:00:23]And, uh, I think you're going to see that good things are going to happen.

[00:00:27]This is going to be a very exciting trip. A lot of good things are going to happen. Mr. >> Do you think he needs to intervene at all with the Iranian he can help in any way?

[00:00:36]>> No, I don't think we need any help with Iran. We'll win it one way or the other.

[00:00:40]We'll win. We'll win it peacefully or otherwise. I have a great relationship with President Xi and I think it's going to remain that way. We have a lot of things to discuss. Uh I I wouldn't say Iran is one of them to be honest with you because we have Iran very much under control. We're either going to make a deal or they're going to be decimated.
