Good morning from the studio 57 newsroom at cbs news headquarters here in new york. Good to be with you. Im annemarie green. Well, President Trump says he does not want to go to war following the attacks on saudi arabias oil plant this weekend. Mr. Trump said it looks like iran is to blame. Meanwhile attacks sent oil prices surging. Gas prices here at home are expected to jump 10 to 25 cents. Laura podesta is here in new york. Laura, what is the president saying about all of this . Well, when asked about it yesterday, the president essentially said not to worry, that they havent risen very much so far and the u. S. Has Strategic Oil reserves for situations like were in right now. He said well dip into those reserves if necessary. President trump downplayed the saudi oil attack last night in new mexico. But a few years ago they would have been in a panic. Today weve got a lot of oil, weve got a lot of gas. Earlier at the white house, the commander in chief suggested iran is behind last weekends attack on two Saudi Arabian oil plants. Its certainly looking that way at this moment. And while he added that hed like to avoid military conflict, he left the door open to an armed response. It could be met with an attack many, many times larger very easily by our country, but were going to find out who did it. It caused the biggest Oil Disruption in history, reducing global output by 5 . Iranianbacked Houthi Rebels in yemen claimed responsibility, but iran denied any involvement. Saudi arabia says iranian weapons were used and has inv e invited the United Nations in to investigate. Were very concerned that incidents similar to this may provoke larger conflict. N cahioa ged caantience ender no obligation to defend saudi arabia. Theres no circumstance right now where war with iran would be a good idea. Secretary of state mike pompeo is expected to visit saudi arabia soon to discuss the attack, and for those concerned that oil prices are really going to spike in coming days, there is a safety net in place thats been used before. Three times in recent history the countries that make up the International Energy agency have acted today. That includes the gulf war, the destruction after hurricane katrina, and after a long disruption of oil from libya in 2011. Annemarie . All right. Laura podesta in new york. Thank you, laura.

More than 7 billion in investments, creating more than 5,400 new jobs, boosting pay, lump sum bonuses, and improved benefits. Now without an agreement, workers are looking at strike pay of just 250 a week, far less than what theyve made on the job. How long have you worked at gm . Ive had 34 years at gm. Its come to this.
