US President Donald Trump said new talks with Iran would begin on Monday afternoon. He had previously called off a planned attack on Iran. According to the Financial Post, Trump did so partially in response to pleas from US allies in the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia.
The talks were announced after Trump called off the attack on Sunday. He also suggested an agreement on reopening the Strait of Hormuz may be close and added that he would continue to pursue a path to end Iran's nuclear program, as reported by FXStreet.
The US Dollar Index declined amid improved risk sentiment, with traders awaiting the release of the US ISM Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index report and the US employment data on Friday.
