US-Iran Deadlock Escalates: Trump says the Iran ceasefire is on “massive life support” after rejecting Tehran’s counterproposal, calling it “totally unacceptable” and “garbage,” while Iran demands an end to the war on all fronts, compensation, lifting the US naval blockade, and removal of sanctions—keeping the Strait of Hormuz effectively shut and supply fears front and center. Hormuz Pressure on Energy: Oil stays near the $105 level as shipping disruptions persist; the IEA estimates the conflict has removed about 14 million barrels/day from global supply, and Aramco warns normalization could stretch into 2027. US Moves to Stabilize Markets: Washington plans to release 53.3 million barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to cushion the fallout. Diplomacy Meets Power Politics: Iran vows “crushing” retaliation to any aggression, while Trump heads to Beijing for talks with Xi that are expected to focus on Iran and energy. Regional Ripples: EU foreign ministers agree sanctions on Hamas leaders and Israeli settlers; in the Gulf, Heathrow reports a drop in passengers tied to the Middle East conflict.
