U.S. and Iranian negotiators met separately with Qatari and Pakistani mediators in Doha on Wednesday, achieving what host Qatar described as “positive progress,” and agreed to continue discussions.
President Donald Trump stated that indirect talks between the U.S. and Iran were making progress, signaling continued diplomatic efforts despite recent hostilities. According to Bloomberg News, Trump said negotiators had made progress as both countries seek to move past last week’s tit-for-tat strikes and convert their interim truce into a more lasting agreement.
The meetings involved separate discussions between U.S. and Iranian negotiators with Qatari and Pakistani mediators facilitating the talks, Newsmax reported. Qatar characterized the progress as “positive.”
France24 reported that Iran also confirmed the talks had ended, but did not provide further details on the outcome or future plans. Additionally, Trump stated a hotline between the two countries was being established.
The discussions come after a period of heightened tensions between Washington and Tehran, including recent military exchanges. The aim is to de-escalate the situation and potentially find a path towards resolving outstanding issues.
No further details regarding the specifics of the progress made or the agenda for future talks were immediately available from any of the sources.
