- President Trump announced that U.S.-Iran talks would take place in Doha, the Qatari capital, on Tuesday
- Iran confirmed a delegation would travel to Doha but said it would only meet with mediators, not U.S. officials directly, to press Washington on cease-fire compliance
Why it matters: The gap between Trump's announcement and Iran's denial leaves any diplomatic movement dependent on Qatari intermediaries, and Iran's narrowly scoped agenda — cease-fire enforcement, not broader negotiation — sharply limits what Doha can actually produce.
