华盛顿讯——随着通胀率升至多年来高位，哥伦比亚广播公司民调显示，加油站高昂的油价正让许多美国人面临财务压力。特朗普总统周二对记者表示，在与伊朗的谈判中，“我不会考虑美国人的财务状况”，并表示他唯一关心的是阻止伊朗研发核武器。
当被记者问及美国人的财务状况“在多大程度上激励你达成协议”时，特朗普回应：“一点都没有。”
在启程前往北京与中国国家主席习近平会晤前，特朗普表示：“我谈论伊朗问题时唯一重要的事，就是他们不能拥有核武器。我不会考虑美国人的财务状况，也不会考虑任何人。我只考虑一件事——我们绝不能让伊朗拥有核武器，仅此而已。”
当另一名记者跟进澄清他的言论时，总统回应：“这绝对是最重要的事，包括我们的股市——顺便说一句，目前股市处于历史高位——无论股市小幅涨跌与否，绝对最重要的事都是伊朗不能拥有核武器。”
他补充道：“每个美国人都明白这一点。”
霍尔木兹海峡仍基本处于关闭状态，中东局势看不到明确解决办法，总统在经济议题上的支持率有所下滑。上个月，哥伦比亚广播公司/舆观（YouGov）的一项民调显示，51%的美国人认为高油价造成了经济困难或压力。4月通胀率升至3.8%的年率，为2023年以来最高。
自俄乌冲突爆发以来，特朗普就曾表示，如果伊朗拥有核武器，美国人将面临更糟糕的后果。美国国务卿马尔科·卢比奥也辩称，如果伊朗获得核武器，可能会操纵市场并推高油价。
“每个人都应该这么想，”卢比奥本月早些时候在白宫的吹风会上表示，“如果伊朗拥有核武器，并且决定封锁海峡，让我们的油价涨到每加仑9美元或8美元，我们对此无能为力，因为他们有核武器。拥有核武器的伊朗可以在海峡问题上为所欲为，任何人都对此束手无策。”
根据美国汽车协会（AAA）的数据，周二全国汽油均价为每加仑4.50美元。
Gas Buddy石油分析主管帕特里克·德汉周二在X平台上写道：“如果海峡不能尽快重新开放，我认为最早在6月，全国汽油均价就可能达到每加仑5美元。”

Washington — As inflation rose to its highest rate in years and CBS News polling shows high prices at the pump are causing financial strain for many Americans, President Trump told reporters Tuesday, “I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation” as a motivation for negotiations with Iran, and said he is only concerned with preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons.
When asked by a reporter how much Americans’ finances are “motivating you to make a deal,” Mr. Trump responded: “Not even a little bit.”
“The only thing that matters when I’m talking about Iran, they can’t have a nuclear weapon,” Mr. Trump said before leaving on a trip to Beijing for a meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. “I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation, I don’t think about anybody. I think about one thing — we cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon, that’s all.”
“The most important thing by far, including whether our stock market, which by the way is at an all-time high, but including whether our stock market goes up or down a little bit, the most important thing by far is Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon,” the president responded when another reporter followed up to clarify his remarks.
“Every American understands,” he added.
As the Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed and with no clear resolution in the Middle East in sight, the president’s support on the economy has slumped. Last month, 51% of Americans in a CBS News/YouGov poll said higher gas prices pose a financial hardship or difficulty. Inflation for the month of April rose to an annual rate of 3.8%, the highest inflation 2023.
The president has said since the beginning of the war that the outcomes for Americans would be worse if Iran had a nuclear weapon. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has also argued that if Iran attained nuclear weapons, it could manipulate markets and drive oil prices up.
“Everybody needs to think about it this way,” Rubio said in a briefing at the White House earlier this month. “If Iran had a nuclear weapon and they decided to close the straits and make our gas prices like $9 a gallon or $8 a gallon, we wouldn’t be able to do anything about it, because they have a nuclear weapon. A nuclear-armed Iran could do whatever the hell they want with the straits and there’s nothing anyone would be able to do about it.”
The national average price for gas on Tuesday was $4.50, according to AAA.
Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis for Gas Buddy, wrote on X Tuesday, “If the Strait doesn’t re-open soon, I believe we could see the national average price of gasoline reaching $5/gal as early as sometime in June.”
