A new round of US-Iran meetings begins in Qatar — but the envoys won't be talking face to face

U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner arrived in Qatar for talks with mediators about implementing a deal to end the war in Iran, though direct negotiations with Iranian diplomats are not planned. The discussions follow recent clashes over the Strait of Hormuz and involve efforts to release frozen Iranian assets and reopen shipping lanes.
