Oil drops 4.80% 🔴

Iran is ready for peaceful talks and to resume nuclear negotiations with the U.S. 📣📃

After a series of Israeli strikes on key targets, Tehran announced its readiness to discuss a nuclear pact. Iran is seeking de-escalation of the conflict and, according to Reuters, is looking for support from Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Oman to pressure the U.S. into urging Israel toward a ceasefire. According to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the strikes will continue until Iran’s nuclear infrastructure and ballistic missiles are destroyed. However, this stance may shift if the U.S. increases diplomatic pressure following Iran’s potential return to the nuclear agreement.
