Your morning briefing. All the news you need to start your day.

On today's podcast:

(1) President Donald Trump said the war in Iran is “very close” to completion, even as he said the US plans to launch fresh attacks on the country within the next two to three weeks.

(2) In recent days, the operator of an oil tanker stuck in the Persian Gulf received a compelling proposal. After weeks at anchor with missiles and drones passing overhead, it could finally sail safely out through the Strait of Hormuz and into the open ocean — escorted by the Iranian Navy.

(3) European allies are skeptical Donald Trump will actually pull the US out of NATO. But they still fear the president’s renewed threats to do so are eroding the military alliance at a precarious moment.

(4) The war in Iran prompted a record surge in the price of petrol and diesel in the UK last month, adding to pressure on Prime Minister Keir Starmer to step in to help motorists.

(5) NASA’s crew of astronauts launched to space and reached a stable orbit, kicking off a landmark journey that will take them closer to the lunar surface than anyone has been in more than 50 years.

Your morning briefing. All the news you need to start your day.

(3) Europe is expected to have enough jet fuel to avoid shortages in April, according to people directly involved in the aviation fuel market. But that situation could change in May, as the conflict in the Middle East continues to rock global energy markets.

(4) Christine Lagarde used an audience of high-level Group of Seven officials to challenge Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s optimism that the Iran war’s economic fallout will be short-lived, according to people familiar with the matter.

(5) UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer sought to draw attention to how his government is helping Britons with the rising cost of living, even as he faces growing pressure to announce further support because of the economic effects of the Iran crisis.

(6) OpenAI has completed a deal to raise $122 billion from investors at an $852 billion valuation, marking the company’s largest funding round to date by far and bolstering its costly push for more chips, data centers and talent.

(7) American astronauts last set foot on the moon in 1972. More than half a century later, NASA is preparing to take a big step toward returning.

Your morning briefing.

All the news you need to start your day.

On today's podcast:

(1) Oil fluctuated after the Wall Street Journal reported that US President Donald Trump told aides he’s willing to end the military campaign in Iran even if the vital Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed.

(2) An Iranian drone hit a fully laden Kuwaiti oil tanker off Dubai early on Tuesday in one of the most significant attacks on a vessel in a month of war, pushing oil prices higher and heightening tension around the vital Strait of Hormuz.

(3) Iran is pushing the Houthis to prepare for a renewed campaign against Red Sea shipping, contingent upon any further escalation by the US in its war on the Islamic Republic, according to European officials familiar with the matter.

(4) Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the US may need to reassess its relationship with NATO after the Iran war is finished, calling the military alliance’s alleged lack of support during the Middle East conflict “very disappointing.”

(5) China’s factory activity expanded for the first time this year despite higher energy prices and disruptions caused by the escalating conflict in the Middle East.

(6) UK shoppers should brace for a wave of price increases, the retail industry warned as a survey taken immediately after the outbreak of the US-Iran war found higher energy costs had yet to filter through to household budgets.

(7) Russia’s main security agency is expanding its sweeping surveillance powers, deepening the state’s reach into economic and social life to suppress any risk of dissent to President Vladimir Putin.
