AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 minutes ago

Iran-US Deal Whiplash: Oil prices swung hard after Iranian reports said Washington and Tehran are “hours” from announcing peace terms, including a ceasefire and sanctions relief—then traders reversed as Iran’s Supreme Leader directive said near-weapons uranium must not be sent abroad. Nuclear Standoff: Trump doubled down, vowing the US will “retrieve” and even “destroy” Iran’s enriched uranium, while Rubio said “some good signs” exist but warned a Hormuz toll would make any deal “unfeasible.” Maritime Tensions: Iran published a map expanding control into UAE/Oman waters, demanding coordination and permission—while Trump claims the US has “total control” of Hormuz and wants it toll-free. Lebanon Pressure: Lebanon escalated contacts with the US to push Israel to halt attacks and agree to a ceasefire as strikes continue. Gaza Flotilla Fallout: All 428 activists on Global Sumud Flotilla 2.0 were released, but Ben-Gvir’s viral taunting video keeps triggering EU and Denmark condemnation. Turkey Politics: An Ankara appeals court annulled the CHP congress, ousting Ozgur Ozel and roiling markets. Saudi Economy/Projects: NEOM terminated Webuild’s NEOM connector rail contract in Tabuk.
