Trump to meet Qatar's PM as Iran talks stall

President Donald Trump will meet Qatar's Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani at the White House on Monday for closed-door talks, as diplomatic efforts to resolve the conflict with Iran face significant hurdles. Vice President JD Vance is also scheduled to meet the Qatari leader, who has served as a key intermediary between Washington and Tehran. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Sunday that negotiations had made little progress, calling Iran's demands "unacceptable" and "outrageous." Qatar has conveyed proposals between the two sides, including a nuclear proposal from Iran. Trump said he was unlikely to order new strikes if talks produced a strong agreement, but warned additional infrastructure targets, including bridges, were identified should military action resume.
