Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Korva Coleman.
President Trump gave the first address to the nation last night since launching the war against Iran.
He says the U.S.
Should conclude its operation in about two to three weeks, but he offered no specifics about Iran's nuclear material.
It 's believed Iran has about 1,000 pounds of highly enriched uranium,
and NPR's Greg Meirey says it 's not fully clear where it 's stored.
We've had no information, and we've heard from the head of the U.N.'s Atomic Energy Agency, who.
They saw that more than a year ago.
They don't know where that is.
But not clear how the U.S. Plans to get that material if Iran might make a deal on it.
So still, as much as he talked about the fact that Iran shouldn't get a nuclear weapon ever, he didn't say how the U.S.
Would be able to guarantee it.
NPR's Greg Myrie reporting.
Oil markets have not been calmed by the president's address.
Benchmark crude oil prices have risen to more than $108 a barrel.
In his remarks, President Trump said the U.S.
Does not need oil from the Strait of Hormuz.
He said that it will open up naturally after the conflict is over.
But earlier yesterday, Trump threatened Iran if the Strait was not reopened.
NPR's Camilla Domenoski reports markets are volatile.
