The envoys of President Trump have arrived in Qatar for discussions with Qatari officials, while Iran confirms the sending of a delegation but denies meetings with the USA.

President Donald Trump's envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, arrived in Doha on Tuesday to meet with mediators and Qatari officials, discussing 'all regional issues', including negotiations with Iran and the situation in Lebanon. The spokesperson for the Qatari ministry, Majed Al Ansari, emphasized that the American delegation is not there for direct negotiations with Iran. In the same week, Iran announced that it would send a delegation to Qatar, but denied that it had accepted meetings with American officials. Tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, where reciprocal attacks have occurred, have increased, and negotiations are now more urgent. Iran has stated that it will control maritime traffic in the area, further complicating the situation. Donald Trump mentioned that a meeting with Iran could take place, but its impact remains uncertain.
