    Question

    Iran receives a US nuclear proposal through Qatar but demands sanctions relief and frozen-funds release first

    Direct answer

    The conditional diplomatic channel creates two-sided near-term risk for crude and the dollar: progress could reduce the Hormuz premium, while failure would preserve sanctions and supply concerns.
