Pezeshkian: Iran Stronger Than Ever - Jordan News
Pezeshkian: Iran Stronger Than Ever Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian affirmed that his country is self-reliant and does not need anyone—regardless of whether a nuclear agreement is reached between Washington and Tehran amid ongoing negotiations. اضافة اعلان Speaking at a ceremony marking the anniversary of the founding of Islamic Azad University, Pezeshkian said: "The university must raise individuals who love their country and strive to build a better future for it." Referring to the indirect nuclear negotiations between Iran and the United States, the president stated: "If America does not wish to negotiate with us and imposes sanctions, we will find hundreds of ways to overcome them and any accompanying challenges. What we need is unity and the opportunity for elites and academics to engage actively in the field and in universities." He emphasized that "the people and the country need academics, elites, and scientists," adding: "Many may not know the extent of the services our scholars and elites provide to the country, but those who work for their people are willing to sacrifice their lives without expecting anything in return—to save the region, uphold their beliefs, and ensure the success of their country." Pezeshkian stressed "the need for unity and cohesion within the country and avoiding division and discord," noting: "No one should be excluded based on gender, ethnicity, or political affiliation." He praised the efforts of all academics and added: "We must build an Iran that generates wealth and capital. This is the responsibility of our academics and youth. The enemies mistakenly believe that Iran has weakened. Iran is stronger than ever, thanks to its scientists and elite minds."

Oil Prices Rise Amid Supply Concerns Linked to Iran, Russia, and Canada - Jordan News
Oil prices rose in early Asian trading on Tuesday due to growing supply concerns, as Iran appeared poised to reject a proposed U.S. nuclear deal that would be key to easing sanctions on one of the world's largest oil producers, while wildfires disrupted production in Canada. اضافة اعلان Brent crude futures climbed 55 cents, or 0.85%, to $65.18 a barrel by 12:00 GMT. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude rose 59 cents, or 0.94%, to $63.11 a barrel, after gaining nearly 1% earlier in the session. Both benchmarks had risen about 3% in the previous session after OPEC+ agreed to maintain its planned production increase of 411,000 barrels per day, a figure lower than some in the market had feared and consistent with the past two months' increases. Geopolitical tensions further supported prices on Tuesday. An Iranian diplomat said on Monday that Iran was on the verge of rejecting a U.S. proposal to resolve the decades-long nuclear dispute, stating that the deal fails to serve Tehran's interests or soften Washington's stance on uranium enrichment. If the U.S.-Iran nuclear talks collapse, sanctions on Iranian oil would remain in place, restricting supply and supporting higher oil prices. Meanwhile, the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine continues to fuel supply worries and raise geopolitical risk premiums. Adding to supply fears, a wildfire in Alberta, Canada, has led to the temporary shutdown of some oil and gas production, potentially curbing output. According to Reuters calculations, the wildfires have impacted over 344,000 barrels per day of oil sands production—around 7% of Canada's total crude oil output.
