It follows the United States President, Donald Trump, and Iran’s parliament speaker, giving conflicting accounts of potential talks between the two countries on the ongoing war.
Trump earlier said he had postponed threatened strikes on Iranian power plants after having “productive” conversations with Tehran.

Meanwhile, the price of oil rose again to over $100 a barrel after plunging on Monday when Trump first posted about US-Iran talks.
