Pezeshkian said Iran will seek to resolve the conflict with the United States through dialogue but did not provide further details. This is the first time in weeks that Iran has approved negotiations with the US. Iranian negotiators held three days of talks with Qatari mediators to seek a deal to end its conflict with the US and Israel.

Hopes for talks between the US and Iran have sent global oil prices down sharply. Crude oil prices on Tuesday fell nearly 8% to 104.4 USD a barrel, dropping below 105 USD for the first time since October.
