  "account": "President Donald Trump announced on Sunday that new talks with Iran will commence on Monday, following his cancellation of what he declared would have been \"massive\" strikes on the country. Speaking from Air Force One, Trump claimed the adversaries were aware of the impending attack due to its formation. He insisted they were now engaged in negotiations, with the discussion set to begin later that afternoon. Trump's remarks came after Iran's semi-official Mehr news agency refuted claims Tehran had requested a pause in military action. The president has repeatedly vowed a negotiated resolution to the conflict is imminent, yet tit-for-tat strikes have continued. Trump did not specify a deadline for a deal with Tehran, stating they would \"just see how it is.\" He affirmed readiness to proceed at any time and emphasized Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman's and other US allies' plea not to launch strikes over the weekend, citing a potential deal on Hormuz and the nuclear program. Oil prices experienced a decline at the start of Monday trading in Asia, with Brent Crude oil down by 4.5% to $83.98 and US-traded oil falling 4.6% to $80.74.",
  "summary": "Tehran has not responded to the suggestion that new talks are imminent. Trump has previously said a negotiated end to the war is close, only for strikes to resume.",
