Transcript Highlights

The following is transcribed from the video audio:

• You guys are issuing this warning to Iran two days after renewing a waiver that unlocked $10 billion in frozen funds
• Don’t you think Iran is paying more attention to the actions of this administration than the words
• I can’t speak for the mullahs or what they’re paying attention to or not, Jackie
• That allows for Iraq to be able to work its way off of Iranian energy so that they can keep the lights on
• And we’re continuing to work with our Iraqi partners about how to do that

• And so we don’t want to penalize the Iraqi people for efforts that they’re still trying to get to wean off of that
• Not only do the Iraqi people not suffer because of this, the Iranian people aren’t going to suffer because of this
• Wouldn’t it be, though, the Iranian people who would suffer as a result of the teeth in the warning
• I mean, you’re saying you would suspend flights on Iran air to Europe if Iran supplies ballistic missiles to Russia
