Iran offers new proposal amid stalled US peace talks
Pakistan is relaying Tehran’s revised peace offer as talks stall and oil markets remain under pressure, with Brent crude near $109.96 a barrel, Reuters said.
- On April 13, the U.S. initiated a blockade that stranded Iranian oil tankers, forcing Iran to consider dramatic production cuts within two weeks due to limited storage capacity.
- During his first term, President Donald Trump hiked sanctions as part of a 'maximum pressure' campaign, though the effort failed to secure a nuclear deal with Tehran.
- Wood Mackenzie analysts estimate Iran will exhaust storage capacity in three weeks, with Alexandre Araman writing that 'if the blockade persists, cuts become inevitable.'
- On Monday, Oil Minister Mohsen Paknejad praised terminal staff for their 'continuous perseverance,' while U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent claimed on X the blockade is collapsing the industry.
- Miad Maleki, a former U.S. Treasury sanctions expert, warned that shutting down oil wells could cause irreversible damage and trigger new unrest among workers if operations halt.
