The US President and his national security team are discussing the possibility of resuming large-scale military operations against Iran, potentially before the upcoming midterm elections. President Trump expressed disinterest in a new deal with Iran, despite ongoing negotiations by a US envoy. Elevated crude oil prices persist even as Middle East oil exports approach pre-war levels, influenced by the geopolitical tensions. This potential military action could impact the US political landscape and global energy markets in the near term.
The news about President Trump's stance on Iran and potential US military actions comes as a backdrop to market activity.
