The U.S. is currently in talks with Iranian officials, with Steve Witkoff, Trump's special envoy to the Middle East, still in contact with Iranian officials. However, no date has been set for a meeting between U.S. and Iranian officials, according to Axios [2]. The Iranian Mission to the U.N. has responded to Trump's claims of Iranian contact, stating that no Iranian official has ever asked to "grovel at the gates of the White House" [3].
The situation remains fluid, with both sides issuing warnings and threats. Iran has warned any "third party" involvement in its conflict with Israel, while the U.S. has warned against Iran targeting U.S. personnel or assets. Trump has emphasized his desire to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, stating that he wants an "end" rather than a ceasefire. The U.S. has also expressed its commitment to peace and stability in the Middle East, as reiterated in a statement from the G7 leaders [4].
Investors and financial professionals should closely monitor the developments in this ongoing conflict, as any escalation could have significant economic and geopolitical implications. The situation remains dynamic, with a two-week deadline set for Trump's decision.

US officials: No date set for meeting between US and Iranian officials yet - Axios.
President Donald Trump has set a two-week deadline to decide whether to strike or negotiate with Iran, according to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. The decision comes amidst escalating tensions between Iran and Israel, with Iran's recent missile strikes on Israeli hospitals sparking international concern. Leavitt stated that there is a "substantial chance" of negotiations with Iran, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has indicated that Israel will strike all of Iran's nuclear facilities if necessary [1].The U.S. is currently in talks with Iranian officials, with Steve Witkoff, Trump's special envoy to the Middle East, still in contact with Iranian officials.
