President Donald Trump is pursuing a diplomatic off-ramp from potential military conflict with Iran, with reports suggesting a possible US-Iran agreement is taking shape. A deal could ease pressure on global oil markets, but terms and timeline remain unconfirmed.
President Donald Trump announced on June 13, 2026 that the US and Iran have reached a "great settlement," with both sides finalising documents. A confirmed deal could trigger oil price moves and reshape Middle East security arrangements, though Iran has not yet publicly confirmed the agreement.
President Trump said a Memorandum of Understanding with Iran on a peace deal is largely negotiated. If finalized, the agreement could trigger sanctions relief, reshape Middle East geopolitics, and push global oil prices lower.
President Donald Trump said a nuclear deal with Iran is largely negotiated and awaiting finalization, with terms that include reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Confirmation of the agreement could ease oil market risk premiums and reduce the threat of disruption to a waterway carrying roughly 20 percent of global traded
Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei said the US dismissed Iran's latest response in nuclear talks and accused Washington of making unreasonable demands. A public breakdown in positions raises risks for oil markets and complicates any near-term diplomatic agreement.
President Trump rejected Iran's latest response to a U.S. ceasefire proposal, delivered through Pakistani mediators on Sunday. The breakdown keeps diplomatic tensions elevated and adds uncertainty to Middle East stability and energy markets.
Iran has responded to a US peace proposal while warning against any new attacks on Iranian territory. The response arrived just before a US-China summit in South Korea, adding diplomatic weight to an already sensitive moment.
Iran has sent a response to a US ceasefire proposal through Pakistan, using Islamabad as a diplomatic intermediary. Tehran is demanding a halt to hostilities and binding guarantees against future attacks, keeping a diplomatic channel open while setting a high bar for any deal.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Friday the U.S. expects Iran to respond that day to a U.S. proposal aimed at ending the conflict. The tight deadline signals nuclear diplomacy has reached a critical decision point, with Tehran's answer likely to shape next steps.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi accused the US of choosing military escalation over diplomacy, saying Washington launches a "reckless military adventure" whenever a negotiated solution is available.
Pakistan is mediating between the US and Iran on a short-term deal to end the current fighting. A senior Pakistani official says the priority is a permanent end-of-war declaration, with other disputes to be settled in subsequent direct talks.
Iranian lawmaker Ebrahim Rezaei dismissed a US peace proposal as "more of an American wish-list than a reality," even as Trump predicted a swift end to the war. The public gap between Washington's optimism and Tehran's skepticism keeps the conflict's timeline and regional stability uncertain.
Trump cancelled a Pakistan trip by envoy Steve Witkoff and adviser Jared Kushner, saying Iran should call the US directly. The move shifts the diplomatic burden to Tehran and removes a near-term milestone that regional governments and energy markets had been tracking.
Iran proposed reopening the Strait of Hormuz and ending the U.S. blockade while deferring nuclear talks, an offer Trump has so far rejected. The standoff keeps risk elevated over one of the world's most critical oil shipping lanes.
The US cancelled a diplomatic trip to Iran after President Trump said Tehran's offer was unsatisfactory. Iran rejected talks it called negotiations held under siege. The breakdown removes the nearest opportunity for direct contact between the two sides.
Iran is offering a separate Hormuz strait deal to regional and global partners, independent of its nuclear negotiations with the US. The move is designed to build wider international support while indirect US talks remain stalled. Hormuz carries about a fifth of global oil supply, making any deal there significant for
A U.S. official says President Trump is dissatisfied with an Iranian diplomatic proposal because it did not address Iran's nuclear program. The rejection signal raises doubts about near-term progress in U.S.-Iran negotiations. No timeline for further talks or a counter-proposal has been given.
The White House confirmed President Trump discussed a new Iranian proposal with national security aides on Monday. The development signals some level of diplomatic communication between Washington and Tehran, with potential consequences for oil markets and regional security. No details of the proposal have been made
Turkish FM Hakan Fidan told the Antalya Diplomacy Forum that Israel under Netanyahu is pursuing territorial expansion under a security pretext, citing Gaza, the West Bank, East Jerusalem, Lebanon, and Syria. The statement deepens an ongoing public feud after Netanyahu's April 11 criticism of Erdogan triggered a sharp
