ملخص

US President Trump warns of a 'very bad future' for NATO if allies do not support the US in Iran, and mentions a potential delay in the China summit, which may lead to increased geopolitical tensions and market volatility. This development could impact global asset prices, particularly those sensitive to geopolitical risk. The situation may lead to a risk-off environment, affecting various assets and sectors.
