THE EXCHANGE OF FIRE. >> WE DO NOT THINK WAR, THAT HAS. OPINION OUR MESSAGE UNTIL NOW. HOWEVER IN THE FACE OF. AGGRESSION, WE WILL NOT STAND. BY, WE ARE CAPABLE OF DELIVERING. RESPONSE. INSTABILITY WOULD AFFECT. EVERYONE AND CREATE SERIOUS.

PROBLEMS, INSTABILITY IS IN NO. COUNTRY'S INTEREST. >> Trey: REPORTS INDICATE U.S. MAY RAMP UP PRESSURE FOLLOWING. NEW SANCTIONS LAST WEEK, IRANIAN. REACTED WITH CHAMATH. PALIHAPITIYA KHAMENEI URGING. MORE PRODUCTION AND LES RELIANCE. ON THE DOLLAR. PRESIDENT TRUMP SAID THIS. >> President Trump: THE BLOCKADE. HAS BEEN UNBELIEVABLE. THE FINANCIAL HIT SAYS WE'RE.

FOR EVERY DOLLAR. INFLATION IS GOING UP, THEY. CAN'T GET GAS AND CAN'T GET. PRODUCT THROUGH THEIR PORT AND. STRAIT. I LIKE YOUR SOURCES BETTER THAN. NEW YORK TIMES, WHAT ARE YOU. HEARING? >> Trey: FOX NEWS REPORTED THERE. IS POSSIBILITY OF PROTEST IN. IRAN OVER ECONOMIC SITUATION. THAT THE COUNTRY FACES RIGHT. NOW. LOOK AT STATEMENTS FROM IRANIAN. OFFICIALS OVER THE WEEKEND.

WE HEARD FROM IRANIAN SUPREME. LEADER KHAMENEI, BUT IRANIAN. PRESIDENT PEZESHKIAN WAS. INTERVIEWED BY STATE MEDIA AND. HE SAID I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO. TELL PEOPLE THAT SAY SANCTIONS. HAVE NO EFFECT ON OUR COUNTRY. THIS IS NOT JUST SANCTIONS. PACKAGE ANNOUNCED LAST WEEK, PEZESHKIAN TALKED ABOUT EXPORTS. BEING DOWN RESULT OF U.S. BLOCKADE. THEY CAN'T EXPORT CRUDE OIL AND.

THAT IS HOW THEY FUND IRGC. YOU HAVE BROADER ISSUE OF. IRANIANIAN PLACEMENT ON GLOBAL. ECONOMIC TRADE AND PART OF THE. SANCTIONS PACKAGE IS MEANT TO. ISOLATE IRANIAN REGIME FROM THE. OUTSIDE WORLD AND THEIR ABILITY. TO DO BUSINESS WITH OTHER. COUNTRIES AND GET AROUND THE. NAVAL BLOCKADE. IRANIAN OFFICIALS ARE SAYING IT. IS STARTING TO HAVE AN IMPACT. AND SAYING ECONOMIC PRESSURE ON. IRANIAN MAY INCREASE WITH NEW.

SANCTIONS. >> Ainsley: DO YOU THINK THE. LEADERSHIP, DO THEY CARE THAT. THE PEOPLE IN THEIR COUNTRY ARE. BEING SQUEEZED TIGHTLY? ARE THEY WORRIED ABOUT MORE. PROTEST? OR THEY DON'T CARE? THEY HAVE THEIR OIL MONEY AND WE. SAW IN JANUARY THEY WOULD MURDER. PEOPLE ON THE STREET IF THEY. PROTESTED. >> Trey: THEY ARE WORRIED ABOUT. POSSIBILITY OF PROTEST THAT. WOULD THREATEN LEADERSHIP IN. INNER TA. WE SAW THE CRACK UPONDOWN ON.

PROTESTERS KILLED IN THE. STREETS, IRANIAN OFFICIALS NEVER. SHIED AWAY FROM TAKING TO THE. STREET AND USING LIVE AMMUNITION. AGAINST THEIR OWN PEOPLE. LOOK AT THE NUMBERS, THERE ARE A. LOT OF STATEMENTS AND LARGE. FOCUS ON STRAIT OF HORMUZ. THE REAL IS INTERESTING TO LOOK. AT, EKSZ CHANGE RATE IS HISTORIC. LOW FOR THE COUNTRY'S CURRENCY. AND THE VALUE IS CONTINUING TO. WEAKEN AMID U.S. ECONOMIC ISSUE.

MS. YOU HAVE STRAIT OF HORMUZ, IRANIANS FEEL IT THERE LAST. LEVER TO PULL, THEY ARE. OVERSEEING VESSELS COMING OUT OF. PERSIAN GUMP AND MILLIONS OF. BARRELS ARE MAKING IT OUT OF THE. AREA. THEY TRIED TO LAUNCH FIVE. ROCKETS THAT ATTACHED SEA MINES. TO THEM AND REMINE THE STRAIT OF. HORMUZ. THEY WERE UNSUCCESSFUL BECAUSE. U.S. FORCES HIT THE ISLAND WHICH.

LED TO THIS ATTACK ON U.S. FORCES. U.S. HOPE IS ECONOMIC PRESSURE. WILL PUSH THE REGIME TO CHANGE. BEHAVIOR. SIX MONTHS IN, THERE IS NO. INDICATION IRANIANS ARE WILLING. TO CHANGE THE BEHAVIOR AND SIGN. AN AGREEMENT THEY ARE WILLING.
