Trump to host Qatar's prime minister as Iran talks stall

President Donald Trump will meet with Qatar's prime minister at the White House on Monday as diplomatic efforts to end the conflict with Iran face significant obstacles. The closed-door meeting with Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani, who also serves as Qatar's foreign minister, comes as Qatar acts as a key intermediary between Washington and Tehran. Vice President JD Vance is also scheduled to meet with the Qatari leader. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Sunday that negotiations with Iran had made little progress, describing Tehran's demands as "unacceptable" and "outrageous." Trump said he was unlikely to order new strikes if talks produce a strong agreement but warned additional infrastructure targets had been identified.
