Reports that Iran tells Qatar, Oman it won’t negotiate with US ‘while under attack’


Iran has told mediators from Qatar and Oman that it won’t engage in negotiations while it is under attack, according to an official familiar with the talks.

  • This stance applies to both ceasefire discussions with Israel and efforts to restart nuclear deal talks with the United States.
  • The official said Iran made it clear that it will only consider serious negotiations after it has completed its response to Israel’s recent pre-emptive strikes.

Info comes via The Times of Israel.

The report is along the same lines as this I poste earlier:

Like I said earlier, I can’t vouch for the veracity of these reports, just passing them along. Let’s hope some sort of cessation of violence can happen soon.

From a market perspective, futures trade for the week will begin at 1800 US Eastern time (2300 GMT).
