US President Donald Trump contradicted his Energy Secretary Chris Wright, who cautioned that gas prices might not return to pre-Iran war levels until next year.
“No, I believe he is mistaken about that.” “Completely incorrect,” Trump stated in a phone call with the Hill.
Wright mentioned during an interview on Xenix News State of the Union Sunday that U.S. citizens may not experience gas prices dropping under $3 per gallon until 2027, despite the possible reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
Trump stated that prices will decrease “once this concludes,” in reference to the conflict with Iran.
