US and Iran hold technical talks on peace deal

The United States and Iran have held technical talks in Doha as part of efforts to secure a wider peace deal and restart shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. According to Reuters, the two sides focused on maritime traffic, frozen Iranian assets, and other issues linked to an interim agreement reached earlier. Sources said the talks lasted two days and did not address Iran’s nuclear programme, which is expected to be handled in later discussions. Reuters reported that the initial deal would allow shipping to resume through the Strait of Hormuz, a major route for global oil and gas trade. The discussions were described as technical, with officials saying they built on earlier progress but did not produce a final settlement.

Oil back to pre-war levels as Hormuz traffic rebounds

Oil prices have fallen back to pre-war levels as shipping through the Strait of Hormuz continues to recover. The decline comes as vessel traffic through the key waterway rebounds after weeks of disruption tied to the Iran conflict. Traders are also reacting to signs that diplomatic efforts between Washington and Tehran are helping ease fears of a prolonged supply shock. US Energy Secretary Chris Wright said shipments through the strait are nearing the levels seen before the fighting began. He added that roughly 20 million barrels passed through the strait in the previous 24 hours, suggesting a strong recovery in maritime traffic. At the same time, US officials are trying to reassure Gulf allies worried about Washington’s preliminary deal with Iran.

US says it needs $80bn for Iran war, other bills

The US Department of Defense has told lawmakers it needs about $80 billion in emergency funding to cover costs from the Iran war as well as other non-war-related bills, according to briefings cited in US media reports. Deputy Defense Secretary Stephen Feinberg communicated the request to members of Congress in phone calls this week, with the Wall Street Journal reporting that the $80 billion figure is now the Pentagon’s target for an urgent supplemental package. The planned request would not be limited to the military alone, as the full US supplemental proposal is expected to include money for the Pentagon alongside non-defense priorities such as farm support and disaster relief. US officials previously indicated that the Iran war has cost around $25 billion so far, marking the first official estimate of the financial toll of the conflict. Earlier projections from […]

Iran, US hold tense Oman talks as war fears grow

Iran and the United States have held high stakes indirect talks in Oman aimed at easing their nuclear dispute and preventing a new war in the Middle East.​ The negotiations in Muscat were arranged through Omani mediation and focused on Iran’s nuclear programme, but deep disagreements over missiles, regional militias and human rights threatened to derail progress. Iran wants the talks to be limited strictly to nuclear issues, while Washington insists its concerns about ballistic missiles, Tehran’s support for armed groups and its treatment of protesters must also be addressed.​ Iranian officials say their ballistic missile programme is non negotiable and part of the country’s defence, while demanding recognition of their right to enrich uranium and the lifting of US sanctions reimposed after Donald Trump quit the 2015 nuclear deal. For the US, allowing uranium enrichment inside Iran remains a […]
