Trump Says Iran Deal Possible as Oil Prices Fall, Vance Voices Optimism

news18.com —

President Donald Trump said Monday that a deal with Iran "could happen," citing falling oil prices as evidence Tehran seeks a settlement in the eight-month conflict. He expressed hope for a diplomatic resolution amid ongoing negotiations. Vice President JD Vance echoed optimism about a negotiated settlement, noting progress in indirect talks mediated by Qatar and Pakistan. Oil prices dropped 7.5% to about $105 a barrel, though still above pre-war levels, as Tehran offered to reopen the Strait of Hormuz under conditions. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is reportedly urging Trump for fresh strikes after Tuesday's US midterm elections, but Trump has not committed. Middle East allies warned renewed attacks could destabilize the region and provoke retaliation from Iran-backed groups.
