Trump to meet Gulf leaders for Iran war talks next week - report
The talks are expected to focus on US proposals for a postwar strategy following the conflict with Iran, according to Axios.
The United States is nearing the end of its war with Iran, according to President Donald Trump. Iran reportedly expressed a desire to reach a deal, and Trump stated that Tehran wanted a resolution. Trump is set to meet with Persian Gulf leaders at the UN General Assembly in New York next week to discuss the future of the war, as his team finalizes a "day-after" plan after the midterm elections.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has called for de-escalation and diplomacy in the Middle East amid intensifying conflicts in Yemen and between the Houthi group and Saudi Arabia. Iran supports Chinese President Xi Jinping's Middle East peace proposals, with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi praising successful consultations in China and emphasizing the importance of Iran's strategic partnership with Beijing.
US officials met senior Houthi representatives in Oman over the weekend, where the Iran-backed group pledged no intention of attacking American vessels and reaffirmed its commitment to a 2025 ceasefire with Washington.
