Brennan: This will allow Iran to sell its oil based on pre-war production levels, between 150 and $200 million every day, up to $6 billion per month. What do you think they will spend that money on? Waltz: If it's not going to the places that were agreed upon, we can absolutely turn it back off. The president can put the blockade back in. Brennan: The president himself says he wants to avert economic disaster and that we are weeks away from a fuel shortage. He seems to be saying that he wouldn't necessarily want to return to conflict if that's the cost of it. The credible use of force seems in question. Waltz: There's some nuance there…

When asked whether President Trump’s statement that he negotiated a truce with Iran to avert economic disaster and a fuel shortage undercuts the threat of U.S. military force, U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Mike Waltz says “there’s some nuance there.” “In the United States, we are producing more than we ever have. Venezuela is now producing,” Waltz argues. “But some of our allies absolutely have been affected, particularly in Asia. And the president has that in mind as he is negotiating.”

Hoekstra: If Canada decides, "No, we'd rather ship that oil somewhere else and we don't want to ship it to the US," again, that's a decision that Canada can make. But America is not going to wait for that decision. We will go to other places in the world to look at where we can get that oil from.

Speaking at the same event, U.S. Ambassador Mike Waltz punted some of the reforms pushed by Washington at the United Nations by targeting what he has described as a bloated budget and wasteful spending. Ambassador Waltz has emphasized the need to reduce the size and scope of the U.N. budget to ensure that every hard-earned U.S. taxpayer dollar is spent responsibility given that the United States is the largest single funder of the U.N. I then raised the cost of the War in Iran to U.S. taxpayers in this exchange with Ambassador Waltz. #sabcnews

I can promise you that we are not going to have these massive loopholes, whether it's working with the UN's IAEA or other form of inspectors."

Reporter: You mentioned Iranian frozen funds could be used to buy American soy. Have the Iranians have already agreed to that? Vance: Yeah, that was something that came up yesterday. And we actually asked the qataris to help us set up the mechanism so that we could ensure that the money goes where we want it to go. And they agreed to do that. We have a good relationship, obviously, with them and a good operational oversight mechanism in place. But even with that said, even with the caveat that it's going to benefit American farmers and obviously benefit the people of Iran, we want both. But fundamentally, that money is not going to be unfrozen unless we continue to see progress. And that will obviously be a big part of the negotiation in the days to come.

President Trump’s threat to "obliterate" Iran's power plants if the Strait of Hormuz is not swiftly reopened, and his call on other nations to police the strait are “not necessarily mutually exclusive,” says U.S. ambassador to the U.N. Mike Waltz. “It can be both,” Waltz tells Margaret Brennan. “We are seeing our allies come around, as they should. But at the same time, the president is not going to stand for this regime…to hold the world's energy supplies hostage.”
