Doha, Qatar - Qatar has announced that discussions between Iran and the United States are ongoing, with both countries participating in diplomatic efforts amid rising tensions and concerns of potential renewed conflict. According to HE Dr. Majed bin Mohammed Al Ansari, the advisor to the Prime Minister and official spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA), the negotiations on the JCPOA (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action) are still taking place, with both parties actively engaged in the process.
Dr. Al Ansari expressed optimism during a speech at the Global Security Forum in Doha, stating that the lack of public information about the talks signals that they are being conducted effectively. He believes that behind-the-scenes mediation has a higher likelihood of success compared to open negotiations.
In addition to the Iran-US talks, Qatar has also shown solidarity with Saudi Arabia in the face of mounting regional tensions. The Foreign Ministry spokesperson affirmed that Qatar stands firmly behind Saudi Arabia as it defends its sovereignty against what it perceives as an attack. This support comes as tensions between the two Gulf nations continue to escalate, further exacerbating an already volatile situation in the Middle East.
