Brent crude prices have risen for the eighth consecutive day, exceeding 120 dollars per barrel, a four-year high, in the context of escalating tensions in the Iran war. This increase has been amplified by U.S. President Donald Trump's rejection of the Iranian plan, according to his statements to Axios. Trump emphasized that, although Iran has approached Washington's position, it has not made sufficient progress. In this context, Trump is set to receive a briefing from Admiral Brad Cooper, the CENTCOM commander, about possible military actions in Iran. Three scenarios are being considered: a short and powerful attack on Iranian infrastructure, taking control of a portion of the Strait of Hormuz to reopen maritime transport, and a special forces operation to secure Iran's enriched uranium stockpile. These measures could prompt Iran to return to the negotiating table with greater flexibility regarding its nuclear program.
