Qatar's Foreign Ministry said no high-level meeting between US and Iranian officials is scheduled in Doha in the coming days, despite the upcoming visit of US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner."To the best of my knowledge, there are no direct meetings scheduled between the two parties in the coming days," Qatari Foreign Ministry spokesman Majed Al Ansari told reporters on June 30.He said the American delegation would meet with Qatari mediators, but added that "to my knowledge there is no high-level meeting between the two sides."The comments came after the White House announced that Witkoff and Kushner would travel to Qatar for high-level meetings. US President Donald Trump said on June 29 Iran had "requested a meeting" that would take place in Doha on June 30.Iran has also said no talks are scheduled with the United States this week.Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baqaei said an Iranian technical team would visit Doha this week but that it had no relation to US officials visiting the Arab country."We will not have any negotiations at any level with the American side in the coming days, and the fact that American representatives are traveling to Qatar has nothing to do with the Iranian delegation's trip," Baqaei said in a statement.The conflicting statements come after the United States and Iran traded tit-for-tat strikes over the weekend, further straining the fragile cease-fire and casting doubt on efforts to resume negotiations.
