Oil prices plummeted by 7% after US President Donald Trump announced that fresh talks with Iran would begin on Monday, following his decision to call off a planned military strike against the Islamic Republic.

Brent crude for October delivery fell as much as 7.3%, while West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude traded below $81 a barrel, according to early Asian trading.

The decline in oil prices comes after Trump cancelled a planned large-scale military strike on Iran following key Middle Eastern allies' urging to prioritise diplomacy.

OPEC producers approved another modest increase in production quotas, completing the planned restoration of output cuts introduced in 2023 and positioning the group to raise supply further once tensions in the Middle East ease.
