US President Trump has publicly de-escalated rhetoric regarding military action against Iran, stating new attacks are 'quite unlikely' and the 'war is effectively over,' leading to a drop in oil prices and a recovery in global equities. This shift follows Republican midterm losses and Qatari mediation efforts, though the US maintains readiness for strikes if necessary and rejects Iran's peace terms as 'absurd.' The situation remains fluid, with Iranian denials of planned talks and continued US sea blockade creating uncertainty regarding a diplomatic resolution.
