Qatari negotiators flew to Tehran on Sunday, June 14, 2026, as part of an effort to finalize an agreement to end the war between the United States and Iran, a source with knowledge of the talks told our newsroom.
The delegation's visit comes amid intensified diplomatic efforts by Qatar to broker a ceasefire. The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the talks in Tehran focus on key sticking points including the withdrawal of foreign forces and the status of Iran's nuclear program.
Neither the Qatari nor Iranian governments have officially confirmed the visit. The U.S. State Department declined to comment on ongoing negotiations.
The conflict, which began in early 2026, has caused significant casualties and regional instability. Previous rounds of talks in Doha failed to produce a lasting agreement.
