Iranian state media has proposed a draft framework to lift the US naval blockade and reopen the Strait of Hormuz to pre-war commercial traffic. The announcement caused WTI crude oil prices to fall by 2.7%, as markets reacted to the potential easing of supply-side inflation. While the proposal aims for a 60-day negotiation window, analysts remain skeptical, viewing the move as a temporary ceasefire rather than a permanent diplomatic resolution.
