Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi discussed diplomatic efforts involving Qatari and Pakistani mediators, Anadolu Agency reported, amid ongoing regional efforts to reach a U.S.-Iran agreement.
AP reported that Qatar and Pakistan helped negotiate a June agreement that paired reopening shipping through the Strait of Hormuz and ending the U.S. blockade of Iranian ports with wider settlement talks. AP said the arrangement collapsed after attacks resumed.
Reuters reported that the sides disagreed over whether nuclear issues or sanctions should come first, a dispute also covered in EconoTimes’ earlier report on the Qatari delegation’s arrival in Tehran.
