Reuters: Trump urges Iran to agree while considering the continuation of the blockade
Reuters reported that Trump has been speaking with oil companies while pushing for an agreement on the continuation of the blockade on Iran.
The Reuters news agency reported that U.S. President Donald Trump has urged Iran to accept an agreement as soon as possible, while simultaneously discussing the possibility of continuing the blockade for months with American oil companies.
According to the report, these consultations took place after a deadlock in efforts to end the conflicts, aiming to mitigate the potential impacts of a prolonged blockade on the energy market.
A White House official stated that in this meeting, actions to maintain the stability of the global oil market and the continuation of the blockade on Iran, if necessary, were discussed.
At the same time, growing concerns about the continuation of this situation have led to an increase in oil prices in global markets.
Another part of the report mentioned that U.S. intelligence agencies are examining various scenarios, including Iran’s potential reaction if Washington unilaterally declares victory.
Reuters also highlighted the domestic pressures on the U.S. government to end this conflict and its economic consequences.
