"It's so impossible to live with, and it's bad for everyone, for the U.S., for our allies, and the only, and the ones who are worse affected by it are our enemies. The effect of it is so severe that all the countries that surround the Gulf and everybody else in the world are-this is going to be the unifying factor for the world."
"The pressure created by the conflict may be enough to end it soon. Resistance to the war is not limited to the U.S. and is taking place around the world, making this a global unifying issue that will ultimately force resolution."
Lloyd Blankfein, former Goldman Sachs CEO, predicts the Iran conflict will conclude quickly because the pressure it creates is unsustainable for everyone involved, including the U.S., its allies, and adversaries. He notes that resistance to the war extends globally and will serve as a unifying factor worldwide. Blankfein, who typically avoided geopolitical commentary during his tenure, now speaks candidly on the subject while promoting his memoir. His comments follow recent escalations including increased U.S. and Israeli bombing campaigns against Iran, Iranian retaliation targeting military bases in the Gulf region, and Iran's appointment of a new Supreme Leader.
