\"How<\/p>\n

US President Donald Trump said Thursday that he was directing Vice President JD Vance to focus completely on domestic anti-fraud efforts and not negotiations towards a deal to\u00a0end\u00a0war with Tehran.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t need a deal with Iran. Those days have long since passed. We\u2019ve got their money, Hundreds of Billions of Dollars, and we\u2019ve got their Strait!\u201d Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.<\/p>\n

His comments came shortly after the Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday that Vance was mulling face-to-face talks with a top Iranian security official.<\/p>\n

The Journal\u2019s report added Trump had told aides and counterparts that he was open to Vance reopening talks with Tehran, and that the president had empowered Vance to negotiate.<\/p>\n

Such an in-person meeting would mark an unusual move.<\/p>\n

Oil prices rose after Trump\u2019s remarks on social media, while Wall Street futures slipped further.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s comments also come after his Republican Party were hit by sweeping losses in this month\u2019s midterm elections, with Democrats gaining control of Congress.<\/p>\n

Anger over war with Iran, which has caused fuel prices to surge in the United States, has been seen as a key factor pushing voters away from Republicans.<\/p>\n

Vance was among Republicans to blame the Iran war for the party\u2019s losses at the ballot box.<\/p>\n

The conflict has been ongoing since US-Israel strikes on Iran from late February, prompting Tehran to choke off the Strait of Hormuz, a critical waterway for energy transit.\u00a0The blockage has wreaked havoc on the world economy, causing energy costs to rocket.<\/p>\n
