War's High Price The war between the US and Iran is now in its second month. There is a lot of talk about the high cost of this conflict. In the first few days, the war cost over 11 billion dollars.

ПЕРЕВОД

Высокая цена войны

Война между США и Ираном продолжается уже второй месяц.

Много говорят о высокой стоимости этого конфликта. В первые несколько дней война стоила более 11 миллиардов долларов. Это потому, что США использовали множество дорогих ракет, каждая из которых стоит 3,5 миллиона долларов.

Эксперты говорят, что к 12-му дню США тратили 385 миллионов долларов каждый день. Этот уровень расходов даже выше, чем был в начале войн в Ираке или Афганистане. Поскольку война происходит вблизи важных нефтяных маршрутов, цена на нефть растёт по всему миру. В некоторых местах цены на нефть самые высокие с 2008 года. Это делает всё более дорогим - от еды до авиабилетов. В Пакистане правительству пришлось повысить цены на бензин на 43% за одну ночь.

Люди обеспокоены, потому что никто не знает, когда война закончится. В то же время президент Трамп произвёл большие изменения в своём правительстве, уволив Пэм Бонди с должности генерального прокурора.
