Push For Gaza, Ukraine Peace Like Iran-Israel Deal
Turkey's President Tayyip Erdogan speaks during a press conference at the NATO summit in The Hague, Netherlands June 25, 2025. REUTERS/Piroschka Van De Wouw ANKARA, June 26 (Bernama-Anadolu) -- Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Thursday hailed United States (US) President Donald Trump's efforts in achieving a ceasefire between Iran and Israel, Anadolu Ajansi (AA) reported. "I told Trump that, referring to his efforts in the Israel-Iran ceasefire, the same level of effort is expected to help end the conflicts in Gaza as well as in the Russia-Ukraine war," Erdogan told reporters aboard his return flight from the NATO summit in the Netherlands. 'The closure of the Strait of Hormuz would cause major problems. We believe Iran would not take such a step,' the Turkish president said. bootstrap slideshow Erdogan underlined that the latest conflict between Iran and Israel has once again highlighted how important energy supply security is. 'As Türkiye, we are carrying out intensive efforts to increase our own energy resources,' Erdogan said. 'At the same time, we are continuing our oil and natural gas exploration activities with seriousness and determination,' he said. 'We do not consider it even remotely possible that Iran would cut off our natural gas supply,' Erdogan said, adding: 'At the moment, our natural gas from Iran is flowing, and we are not facing any issues.' Israel launched air strikes on several sites across Iran on June 13, including military and nuclear facilities, alleging that Tehran was on the verge of producing a nuclear bomb, a claim vehemently denied by Iran. While Iran launched retaliatory missile and drone strikes, the US joined the conflict by bombing three Iranian nuclear sites on Sunday.

Japan Reiterates That Higher US Auto Tariffs Are Unacceptable
FILE PHOTO: Japan's Economic Revitalization Minister Ryosei Akazawa speaks to the press upon his arrival at Haneda Airport, a day after ministerial talks on tariffs, with U.S. President Donald Trump joining the negotiators, in Tokyo, Japan, April 18, 2025. REUTERS/Issei Kato/File Photo TOKYO, June 26 (Bernama-Kyodo) -- Japan's chief negotiator on Thursday set off for another round of tariff negotiations with the United States (US), reiterating before his departure that the 25 per cent additional auto tariffs imposed by Washington remain unacceptable, Kyodo News Agency reported. Minister in charge of economic and fiscal policy Ryosei Akazawa said he still hopes to convince the United States to review the duty, especially as the 90-day pause on part of the so-called reciprocal tariffs imposed on Japan and other countries expires on July 9. The auto tariffs are "not something we can accept," Akazawa told reporters at Tokyo's Haneda Airport before leaving for Washington, referring to import taxes that have weighed heavily on Japan's large automotive industry. bootstrap slideshow The seventh round of ministerial-level tariff negotiations this week are likely to involve US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, as previous rounds have. The auto tariffs have been the key sticking point in the bilateral negotiations that began in April. The latest visit is Akazawa's first since Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba was unable to strike an agreement with US President Donald Trump over the tariffs at their summit on June 16 in Canada. The leaders agreed to have talks continue at the ministerial level. In addition to increasing the tariff rate for passenger cars to 27.5 per cent from 2.5 per cent, the Trump administration raised other sector-based and country-specific duties, in a bid to reduce the trade deficit with Japan, which Trump says primarily results from "unfair" trade practices. Under the reciprocal tariff regime, combined with a baseline rate of 10 per cent covering nearly all goods imported by the United States, Japan faces an additional country-specific tariff of 14 per cent, for a total rate of 24 per cent. To facilitate negotiations, Trump paused tariffs set above 10 per cent for 60 trading partners, including Japan, for 90 days. -- BERNAMA-KYODO

Ringgit rises against US dollar at the close on easing tensions in Middle East
KUALA LUMPUR — The ringgit ended higher against the US dollar, buoyed by the apparent ceasefire in the Israel-Iran conflict, said an economist. At 6 pm, the local note rose to 4.2410/2465 versus the greenback from Monday's close of 4.2915/2980. Bank Muamalat Malaysia Bhd chief economist Dr Mohd Afzanizam Abdul Rashid said the de-escalation also led benchmark Brent crude oil prices to retreat to US$69.56 per barrel as risks to global oil supply appear contained for now. 'Financial markets are responding with a sense of relief, and risk appetite is gradually returning. 'Still, it's early days. Investors remain cautious amid lingering uncertainties — particularly with the US tariff pause set to expire in early July,' he told Bernama. On the domestic front, Mohd Afzanizam said Malaysia's latest consumer price index (CPI) reading of 1.2 per cent reinforces the view that monetary policy remains tight, with real interest rates rising further. 'In summary, market sentiment may stay guarded in the short term, while policymakers are likely to remain vigilant in balancing growth and stability,' he added. At the closing, the ringgit traded mostly lower against a basket of major currencies. It trended lower against the Japanese yen at 2.9256/9296 from 2.9028/9074 at Monday's close, declined versus the British pound to 5.7707/7782 from 5.7437/7524, but improved against the euro to 4.9225/9289 from 4.9236/9311 previously. The local note trended higher against its ASEAN counterparts. It advanced vis-a-vis the Indonesian rupiah to 259.3/259.7 from 260.2/260.7 at yesterday's close and gained against the Philippine peso to 7.41/7.44 from 7.44/7.46. The ringgit also appreciated against the Singapore dollar to 3.3130/3178 from 3.3188/3243 and strengthened to 12.9793/13.0021 from 12.9998/13.0250 versus the Thai baht previously. — BERNAMA
