United States President Donald Trump is set to engage in confidential discussions with Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani at the White House on Monday. The meeting follows Iran's submission of a two-day proposal for nuclear disarmament and conflict resolution, mediated by Qatar, which Washington is currently assessing. The talks come amidst escalating tensions between the US and Iran over Tehran's nuclear program and efforts to find a peaceful resolution to their ongoing conflict. Vice President JD Vance is also scheduled to hold separate talks with Sheikh Mohammed, who serves as both foreign minister and mediator between Washington and Tehran. The Iranian proposal includes a series of conditions such as the lifting of sanctions, reduction of US military presence in the region, reinstatement of oil waivers, and release of frozen Iranian funds, including those held in Qatar. If negotiations yield a strong agreement, Trump has stated that it is "highly unlikely" the US will resume attacks on Iran. However, if diplomatic efforts fail, Trump has warned that additional targets have been identified for potential military action. The US and Iran have previously engaged in limited strikes, including against Iran's air defenses. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has expressed skepticism about the progress of negotiations with Iran, describing some of their demands as "outrageous" and "unrealistic." Meanwhile, Trump's defense secretary and Central Command commander are reportedly urging him to resume attacks against Iran.
