(Bloomberg) -- Here is a snapshot of what's happening with Iran, its nuclear talks and energy markets.
Latest developments
US officials rejected reports that Tehran and Washington were near to a nuclear agreement. Oil dropped on Wednesday, as traders speculated that sanctions on Iranian energy exports would soon be eased.
“Any reports of an interim deal are false,” State Department spokesman Vedant Patel said. Iranian officials have declined to comment. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken echoed these comments during a trip to Saudi Arabia, saying that reviving the 2015 nuclear deal, which reduced sanctions in return for curbs on Iran's nuclear work, wasn't an immediate priority.
