Iran refused to meet US envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff in Doha on Tuesday June 30, dimming ceasefire hopes in the ongoing war and lifting oil prices. Qatar’s prime minister met the Americans instead, according to BeInCrypto, while Iran’s Foreign Ministry said Hormuz mine clearance falls under June’s memorandum of understanding (MoU) and needs no outside help. Brent crude peaked at $74.75 a barrel Tuesday before settling to $73.29 early Wednesday. Alex Vatanka of the Middle East Institute said Iranian officials want visible progress on the June 17 MoU first, including unfreezing Iranian funds and ending hostilities in Lebanon.
