US, Iran seal interim peace deal, Trump warns of severe consequences for any breach

US-Iran talks in doubt as both sides deny planned Doha meeting

Fresh uncertainty has emerged over efforts to end the four-month conflict between the United States and Iran after Tehran insisted no negotiations with Washington are scheduled, despite the White House announcing that senior US officials will travel to Qatar this week.

Donald Trump, US President is dispatching his envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner to Doha to lead the American delegation, according to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt. However, Esmaeil Baghaei, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson said Iran’s delegation would only be in Qatar for technical discussions unrelated to the United States.

“We will not have any negotiation meetings at any level with the American side in the coming days,” Baghaei said.
