US CONTINUES AIR STRIKES ON IRAN, NEGOTIATIONS REMAIN STALLED
While talks show no signs of progress, the US has escalated its air strikes on an Iranian military facility and shot down multiple UAVs near the Strait of Hormuz. Washington claims this is an act of 'self-defense', aimed at protecting US forces and commercial shipping lanes in the area.
Last night, Iran announced that both sides had reached a preliminary agreement. However, the US quickly dismissed this information. Shortly after, President Trump delivered a speech that heightened tensions:
1️⃣ The US is dissatisfied with the current negotiation process, alluding to the possibility of 'ending the conflict' with stronger measures. Trump also confirmed there are no plans to ease sanctions against Iran. $BTC $ETH
2️⃣ Regarding the Strait of Hormuz, Trump emphasized that no country would be allowed to control this strategic shipping lane, regardless of the outcome of negotiations. The US will continue to monitor the region but has not disclosed details on the deployment methods.
Both sides continue to use hardline statements to increase pressure at the negotiation table.
📌 The market reacts relatively cautiously:
• Brent crude hovers around $93
• US stocks closed in the green
• Bitcoin dipped to around $74,000
