Qatar pushes for US-Iran deal before midterms; holds marathon talks: Report
Qatari mediators held marathon talks in Tehran and continue discussions in Doha as Washington and Tehran seek to revive nuclear negotiations ahead of midterms.
Qatari mediators have been engaged in marathon talks in Tehran to restart direct negotiations between the United States and Iran, with the aim of preventing a possible military conflict after the US midterm elections. The talks, which continue on Sunday in Doha, Qatar, come as regional powers seek a diplomatic breakthrough, with fears that a military operation could trigger retaliation against Israel and several Gulf nations.
Qatar is encouraging both sides to adopt reciprocal confidence-building measures, while the US administration is reportedly seeking Iranian nuclear concessions before resuming negotiations.
