Pakistan has ramped up its diplomatic efforts to mediate peace talks between the United States and Iran amid escalating tensions surrounding Iran's nuclear program. Following a fragile ceasefire, US President Donald Trump has threatened military action if Iran does not comply with demands regarding its enriched uranium stockpile. Reports indicate that Trump is under pressure due to rising oil prices, which are contributing to inflation and affecting his approval ratings ahead of the upcoming midterm elections.
Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, has reportedly instructed that near weapons-grade uranium should remain within the country, complicating negotiations. As a result, Brent crude oil prices surged to $107 per barrel, reflecting market concerns over the ongoing conflict.
Iran's latest proposal to the US includes demands for control over the strategic Strait of Hormuz, compensation for war damages, and the lifting of sanctions. The International Energy Agency has warned of a severe energy crisis due to the current situation, with oil passage through the strait significantly reduced. As diplomatic efforts continue, the stakes remain high for regional stability and global energy markets.
