Qatari Mediators Travel to Tehran for Final Touches on a Possible Deal to End War
The proposed accord would give negotiators 60 days to address nuclear issues and frozen assets, while reopening the Strait of Hormuz.
- On Sunday, Qatari mediators traveled to Tehran to finalize a memorandum of understanding between the U.S. and Iran, with officials expressing cautious optimism the agreement could halt hostilities and reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
- Pakistan led monthslong efforts to prevent total collapse of negotiations, resulting in a 60-day framework for technical discussions that excludes resolution of Iran's nuclear program or frozen assets.
- President Donald Trump asserted on social media that the U.S. would "downblend and destroy" enriched uranium, noting Iran holds 440.9 kilograms enriched up to 60%, a short step from 90% weapons-grade levels.
- The current deal deeply disappoints Israel, sidelined in negotiations, while Israel faces ongoing fighting in Lebanon against Iranian-backed Hezbollah and Iran seeks a ceasefire including that conflict.
- Even critics within the Republican Party questioned the agreement, comparing it unfavorably to the 2015 deal, as Trump plans to discuss demining the Strait of Hormuz during the Group of Seven summit starting Monday.
