US, Iran Envoys in Doha for Ceasefire Talks

The indirect talks in Qatar mark the latest effort to stabilize the shaky ceasefire between the United States and Iran, which has already seen flare-ups in the Strait of Hormuz.

Special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner arrived in Doha to meet Qatari mediators, though no direct meetings with Iranians are planned.

Iran’s parliament speaker warned that final negotiations hinge on the implementation of clauses from the initial memorandum of understanding.

Tensions persist over Iran’s push to collect tolls from ships transiting the strategic waterway, a plan the U.S. strongly opposes.
