Oil prices fell on Friday and are on track to snap a two-week winning streak, despite settling ​higher in the previous session following a report that U.S. ‌President Donald Trump is not interested in returning to previous deal terms with Iran.

Brent crude futures were down 25 cents, or 0.3%, to $89.45 a ​barrel by 0035 GMT. West Texas Intermediate crude futures ​fell 22 cents, also 0.3%, to $83.31.

Both benchmarks were ⁠poised to end the week lower, with Brent down 5.3% ​and WTI falling 4.3%.

Citing people familiar with the matter, the ​Wall Street Journal report said the Trump administration has repeatedly told mediators it has no interest in reviving the June memorandum of understanding, ​complicating diplomatic efforts to restart talks.

Earlier on Thursday, Washington ​said it was not in talks with Iran despite diplomatic efforts by other ‌countries ⁠to re-engage the two sides.

On Monday, the U.S. announced what it called the "toughest sanctions in history" on Iran. Tehran said the sanctions were an "inhumane and hostile act" that had lost ​their effectiveness.

Elsewhere, geopolitical ​tensions escalated ⁠after Moscow warned it could strike British military targets inside and outside Ukraine in response to ​Kyiv's attacks on Russian territory using British-supplied long-range ​cruise ⁠missiles.

Trump, however, said Russian President Vladimir Putin will not attack a North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) country, and he downplayed media reports that ⁠CIA ​Director John Ratcliffe this week had ​warned Russian officials against such an attack. Britain is one of the founding ​members of NATO.
