Iran nuclear talks heighten tensions amid Gulf conflict, US-Iran deal doubts

Iran is preparing its forces for a potential expansion of conflict with the US, causing a strategic shift that heightens regional tensions. Simultaneously, nuclear talks are increasing friction amid the ongoing Gulf conflict. These developments are negatively impacting market confidence regarding a possible US-Iran deal by 2026, particularly concerning economic and nuclear terms.
