| 0:00.0 | Hi there. Welcome to Meet the Press Now. I'm Ryan Nobles in Washington, where we're following |
| 0:13.8 | several breaking news stories, including the deadly collision overnight at LaGuardia Airport. |
| 0:19.3 | And we now have video of the moment of the impact, |
| 0:23.1 | which we want to warn you, some viewers may find disturbing. This is the moment captured on CCTV |
| 0:29.4 | footage showing an Air Canada plane colliding with a fire truck on the runway that was responding |
| 0:36.5 | to a separate incident. The collision, |
| 0:39.1 | killing both pilots on board and injuring dozens of others will have much more on this |
| 0:44.5 | breaking news coming up. But we are going to begin with the breaking news tied to the war with |
| 0:49.8 | Iran. Markets closing just moments ago, stock surging and oil prices plummeting after the president said the U.S. could reach a deal with Iran to end the war and that the Strait of Hormuz could open, quote, very soon. |
| 1:04.2 | The president today making an abrupt shift, walking back his threat to obliterate Iran's power plants unless it agreed to reopen the |

| 1:37.2 | perfectly. I would say that if they carry through with that, it'll end that problem, that conflict. And I think it'll end it very, |
| 1:46.6 | very substantially. We're doing a five-day period. We'll see how that goes. And if it goes well, |
| 1:52.3 | we're going to end up with settling this. Otherwise, we'll just keep bombing our little hearts out. |
| 1:57.4 | They want to make a deal. And we are very willing to make a deal. |
| 2:01.3 | It's got to be a good deal. |
| 2:02.5 | And it's got to be no more wars, no more nuclear weapons. |
| 2:06.0 | They're not going to have nuclear weapons anymore. |
| 2:08.1 | They're agreeing to that. |
