## Prediction

In the next 24 hours, U.S. and Iranian officials are likely to issue converging public statements hinting at an interim understanding on uranium dilution and frozen assets without announcing a full deal. Washington will emphasize IAEA supervision and non-proliferation gains, while Tehran frames it as a victory for sovereignty. Qatar will be highlighted as a mediator, reinforcing its regional diplomatic role. However, both sides will leave military de-escalation at sea ambiguous, producing a mixed signaling environment.

## Drivers

- Repeated alerts of U.S. acceptance of in-country uranium dilution under IAEA supervision
- Reports of a Qatar-mediated understanding on frozen Iranian assets and a $12B humanitarian loan
- Emerging trend noting US–Iran war termination diplomacy and de-escalatory economic track
- Iran easing wartime internet restrictions, suggesting preparations for domestic political management of a compromise
