JD Vance: "stop shooting at commercial shipping"

Vice President JD Vance said President Donald Trump has numerous additional options to pressure Iran into stopping attacks on merchant ships in the Middle East. He spoke as the U.S. average diesel price reached $5.85 per gallon on Friday, a level the report describes as a new record. Vance’s remarks indicated the administration is weighing further moves against Tehran at a time when American fuel costs are climbing. The situation matters because the standoff over maritime shipping and record diesel prices are now part of the same public discussion, though the report does not say what concrete steps might follow.
