The proposed peace deal between the United States and Iran, if successful, could significantly reduce geopolitical tensions, potentially leading to a decrease in oil prices and increased stability in the Middle East. However, Iran's contradictory statements introduce uncertainty, which could cause market volatility.
Donald Trump announced a plan for the United States and Iran to jointly remove enriched uranium from Iran's nuclear sites as part of a potential peace deal, with the material to be transferred to US territory. Donald Trump expressed optimism about reaching an agreement soon, claiming Iran had agreed to hand over its enriched uranium.
