US officials' comments on Iran negotiations put mild pressure on US Dollar
United States Vice President JD Vance said on Friday that Iran would not receive cash or released funds simply for signing a potential agreement, pushing back against what he described as false information surrounding a possible deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and end Iran’s nuclear weapons program.
Key takeaways:
Iranians are not receiving any cash, and no funds are being released for simply signing a deal or attending a meeting.
Seeing a lot of fake information about a potential deal to reopen the Strait and end Iran’s nuclear weapons program.”

The US Dollar Index (DXY) continued to fall toward the 99.70 price zone after having been under pressure since the start of the American session in an immediate reaction to comments from various US officials.

Iran deal is performance-based.
Nuclear material will be destroyed and removed.
Nuclear program will be dismantled.
No money released to Tehran until they perform.

The IEA had announced a plan to release 400 million barrels in March, and as of last Friday, about 75 million barrels had yet to be released. Most EU member states believe that this action is simply fulfilling previous commitments rather than adding new releases. Regarding the earlier-than-scheduled release of diesel stocks emphasized in last week's G7 agreement, EU member states consider it feasible, but on a limited scale.
