April 21 (Reuters) - U.S. crude futures fell nearly 2% in early Asian trade on Tuesday as investors reassessed supply risk, with uncertainty over U.S.-Iran peace talks persisting ahead of a key ceasefire deadline.

U.S. West Texas Intermediate was at $88.05 a barrel, down $1.56, or 1.74% by 2211 GMT, following a 6.9% gain in the previous session.
