Qatari mediators present Iran with new deal to end the war, official says
The plan includes daily confidence-building steps and several guarantors as Tehran weighs a response by week’s end, officials said.
- On Sunday, Qatari mediators presented Iran with a new draft agreement aimed at ending the eight-month war with the U.S. and Israel, with Tehran expected to deliver a formal response by the end of the week.
- Escalating tensions, including President Donald Trump's threats on October 23 and Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia's largest oil refinery, have intensified pressure for mediation as oil prices surged above $115 per barrel.
- A senior Iranian official dismissed the initiative as containing "unacceptable ideas and not an offer," asserting that Tehran's policy on nuclear flexibility remains unchanged despite ongoing diplomatic efforts.
- Separately, officials from Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan met Iranian leaders in Tehran on Monday to coordinate de-escalation efforts, reflecting widening regional concern over the conflict's spillover.
- The conflict has cost the U.S. military at least $47.1 billion as of mid-October, adding financial pressure for a diplomatic solution before potential escalation following the U.S. midterm elections.
