According to a report by Reuters, Iran is ready to discuss limits on uranium enrichment amidst the ongoing conflict with Israel.
Iran's Willingness to Engage in Talks on Uranium
A senior Iranian official stated that Iran is open to considering limitations on uranium enrichment. The official noted that the role of European powers is becoming more prominent as Tehran is unwilling to engage with the US amid Israeli attacks. "Zero enrichment will undoubtedly be rejected, especially now, under Israel’s strikes," the official remarked.
Market Reactions to the News
Despite the regional tensions, Bitcoin's price remains steady around $106,000. However, the markets seem to be factoring in a possible de-escalation, with BTC climbing over 1.5% in the past 24 hours, impacting most altcoins as well.
US Response to the Conflict
Recent statements from the US have also been significant. President Donald Trump indicated that he will make a decision about military involvement in the ongoing conflict within the next two weeks. This announcement has put downward pressure on oil prices, which have fallen by more than 3%.
The situation regarding Iran and its willingness to negotiate on uranium enrichment could significantly impact international politics. Current market fluctuations suggest that investors are closely monitoring the developments.
