Qatar has confirmed that indirect negotiations between the United States and Iran concerning the cessation of conflict in the Middle East are ongoing, despite an apparent deadlock. Ibrahim Al-Hashmi, a spokesperson for the Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs, stated during a press briefing that messages are still being exchanged between the parties through Qatar and its regional partners. He emphasized that the talks take into account the interests of various parties involved in the conflict.

"I can confirm that the negotiations are continuing, and the exchange of messages between the various parties is continuing through Qatar and its regional partners," Al-Hashmi said. He highlighted that the duration and scope of the conflict, along with its international ramifications, necessitate active diplomatic engagement. Al-Hashmi urged all parties to exert maximum effort towards a swift cessation of hostilities through negotiation and the achievement of a peaceful resolution.

Qatar is serving as a mediator in the communications between Washington and Tehran. The negotiations are being conducted indirectly, with proposals and messages being relayed between the two sides via intermediaries.
