[Besent Claims to Guide 130 Million Barrels of Oil Through the Strait; Iranian Speaker: Full of Lies]
According to Golden Finance, on August 30, Iranian Parliament Speaker Qalibaf criticized U.S. Treasury Secretary Besent's claim that the U.S. had guided 130 million barrels of crude oil through the Strait of Hormuz over the past 14 days. He stated: 'Liar, liar, pants on fire.' Qalibaf added that if Besent wants a real '130,' he should look at Moody's June survey results. The survey showed that the Iran war has cost U.S. taxpayers at least $132 billion. He also alleged that the U.S. trading firm 'Jane Street' lost over $130 million in a single futures rollover trade due to shorting oil. Finally, he remarked: 'Liar, liar, yields are on fire too,' referring to the recent surge in U.S. long-term Treasury yields. (Jin10)
