President Trump indicates potential military action against Iran amid ongoing negotiations, citing Tehran’s reported willingness to negotiate.
US President Donald Trump stated Tuesday that the US may conduct additional strikes on Iran but has not yet decided. His remarks followed Iran’s reported interest in negotiating a deal, though Trump expressed uncertainty about regime change in Cuba during the same briefing.
Trump’s comments come after recent tensions in the Middle East, including prior US military actions in response to Iranian-linked attacks. Markets have closely monitored geopolitical risks, with oil prices historically sensitive to escalations in the region.
The US Dollar showed mixed movements against major currencies, with the strongest gains against the Australian Dollar, while USD/JPY fluctuations reflected broader risk sentiment.
