> Talks between the two countries are continuing, but a diplomat involved in them rejected claims that an agreement is near.

A diplomat involved in US-Iran negotiations rejected claims Tuesday that the two countries were close to an agreement, a development relevant to oil prices and broader market risk sentiment.

The talks are continuing, but the diplomat disputed reports of an imminent deal. The comments followed claims that a breakthrough was near.

Discussions remain underway, while the claim of a near-term agreement has been challenged.

The disputed reports are also relevant to broader risk sentiment in global markets.
