Iran rejects Qatari initiative to end fighting with the United States

In depth

Qatar passed a new draft agreement to Iran, according to a Reuters report cited by Israel Hayom. According to the draft, the timetable is seven days, during which each side would take daily confidence-building steps, and several countries would serve as guarantors of the agreement.

According to Israel Hayom and Srugim, a senior Iranian official denied the report and claimed that Qatar did not present a new proposal but ideas that are not acceptable to Tehran. According to Arutz Sheva, the official made clear that the initiative "was not an official proposal." He said Iran has not changed its position on the nuclear issue.

According to N12, regional mediators led by Qatar are trying to reach a deal that would allow negotiations on the nuclear issue to resume, and one of the ideas is a possible return by Iran to the Cairo agreement with the International Atomic Energy Agency. U.S. President Donald Trump said: "We need to complete the mission - through an agreement or in another way."
