PNN – Citing an informed source, Reuters reported that Qatari mediators have returned to Tehran as part of efforts to reach an agreement between the United States and Iran.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network; an official familiar with the matter told Reuters that Qatari mediators returned to Tehran on Friday as part of efforts aimed at securing an agreement between the U.S. and Iran.
The official added that these mediation talks were conducted in coordination with the United States.
According to an official with knowledge of the negotiations, Qatar presented a draft peace proposal to Iran on Sunday. However, a senior Iranian official deemed the proposals unacceptable, emphasizing that Tehran would continue to stand firm on its legitimate and peaceful nuclear positions.
Meanwhile, an informed Iranian official previously stated in an interview with Al-Mayadeen that the U.S. Vice President recently exchanged correspondence with Major General Mohsen Rezaei, Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, noting that the exchange of messages between American and Iranian officials is not an exceptional occurrence.
The official added that the resort to correspondence by senior U.S. officials signals Washington’s inability to achieve its objectives through other means. Trump’s claim that the message from J.D. Vance was sent in response to an Iranian request for equipment and medicine is entirely false. Tehran will disclose the details of this message when it deems appropriate.
On February 28, 2026, the United States and the Zionist regime launched an act of aggression against Iran; Tehran responded with its own attacks. In early June, both sides reached an understanding to halt hostilities; however, following the United States’ violation of its commitments, the mutual attacks resumed. Although direct combat has ceased, the conflict remains unresolved—lacking a final agreement—while Washington continues to exert economic pressure on Tehran.
The escalation of tensions and the war against Iran have also disrupted shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, leading to a rise in the prices of fuel and industrial goods across many nations worldwide.
