Iran and the United States have made no progress towards reviving their June interim agreement or setting a timetable for carrying out its commitments, a senior Iranian source has told Reuters, leaving efforts to secure a lasting end to the Gulf war at an impasse.
Key facts
- Brent crude futures have risen sharply since the conflict began in February, reaching a peak of US$126 a barrel — about 75% above pre-war levels
- The assessment came as US President Donald Trump renewed his criticism of Iran’s leadership, further dimming prospects for a resolution after fresh attacks on shipping in the region on Tuesday.
- Brent crude futures were trading at around US$88 a barrel, while US West Texas Intermediate crude stood at about US$83 a barrel.
- Oil prices initially rose on Wednesday before stabilising during volatile trading after forecasters lowered their projections for global oil demand in 2026.
Summary
The assessment came as US President Donald Trump renewed his criticism of Iran’s leadership, further dimming prospects for a resolution after fresh attacks on shipping in the region on Tuesday.
The agreement reached in June called for an “immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts”, but quickly fell apart. Trump declared the deal “over” on July 7, while Iran’s foreign ministry announced a week later that it had been “suspended”.
