US officials signaled military operations were escalating against Iran and there was little chance of diplomatic talks, throwing cold water on President Donald Trump’s suggestion that the conflict could be resolved soon.

Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff said the US leader is always willing to talk, while casting doubt on Iranian willingness to do so. 

“It’s the same question today that we had when we were negotiating with them — do they actually want to have a diplomatic solution here,” Witkoff said in a CNBC interview on Tuesday. “So far, the evidence suggests no.”

A preview of the House Republican annual retreat starting on March 9 led the March 9 edition of Bloomberg Intelligence’s Washington Policy Pulse. Republicans are expected to discuss the next steps on an Iran supplemental defense bill as well as chances for another reconciliation bill -- potentially tied to health care, taxes and tariffs. We also discussed the likelihood of the DHS shutdown ending next week as well as a Congressional update views towards the US-Iran conflict. We also previewed several of the key races to watch in the US midterm elections.

The Bloomberg Intelligence Financial Policy weekly call is designed to provide investors an opportunity to learn about the most recent relevant policy research, information regarding forthcoming political catalysts and other on-goings within Washington DC. 

The call is open to all and is held every Monday at 10:00 a.m. EST. You can register for the call here: https://bloomberg.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN__PqCkwY-S2m3hbQqvVC1_Q#/registration

US President Donald Trump confronted mounting pressures on the 10th day of the Iran war as oil prices surged past $100 and the Islamic Republic announced the hardline son of the assassinated Ayatollah Ali Khamenei as its new supreme leader.

Oil pared some gains Monday as the world’s largest economies considered a coordinated release of emergency oil stockpiles. Turmoil in weekend trading saw prices top $118 a barrel. The Strait of Hormuz remained all but closed, with no finalized plans on how nations will safeguard ships passing through the key waterway.
