🚨 BREAKING: Iran Says Understanding on Main Principles Reached With U.S. 🇮🇷🇺🇸
*Iran’s Foreign Minister says Tehran and Washington have reached a preliminary understanding on the main principles of a potential nuclear agreement** after indirect talks in Geneva.
Iran’s top diplomat **Abbas Araghchi said the second round of negotiations produced an understanding on a set of “guiding principles”**, which will serve as the basis for drafting a possible agreement text. The talks were indirect, mediated by Oman, and both sides agreed there is now a clearer path forward — though **a final deal remains distant and more work is needed**. 0
The discussions — the first significant dialogue since last year’s collapse of nuclear talks — come amid heightened regional tensions, including military buildup and Iranian exercises near the Strait of Hormuz. While this progress eased immediate fears of escalation and briefly **pushed Brent crude prices down**, **key disagreements remain** over nuclear limits, sanctions, and inspection access. 1
This development can influence **oil markets, risk sentiment, and defense equities** as traders price political risk in the Middle East. A breakthrough could reduce geopolitical premiums, while stalled talks or flare-ups could reignite volatility.
