๐Ÿšจ ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท Vance reportedly opens a channel to an Iranian hard-liner to revive talks before any strikes

  • ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท Vice President JD Vance has reportedly written to the secretary of Iran's top security body, a former long-serving IRGC commander, in a bid to restart peace talks (newswires citing a US newspaper, )
  • ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ The outreach is said to test whether there is enough common ground to talk President Trump out of a short, intense strike on Iran in the coming weeks, with some US officials seeing hard-liners as a route to a better deal

FO view: Iran still wants its conditions met before nuclear talks, so the binary stays open.

Not investment advice.
