Qatar's ruler, Amir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, met with U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner in Doha on Wednesday, as reported by Amichai Stein (i24NEWS). The meeting follows a flurry of diplomatic activity surrounding U.S.-Iran engagement in the Qatari capital. Earlier in the week, the Iranian Foreign Ministry denied claims that direct U.S.-Iran talks had begun, saying its delegation was in Doha only to discuss implementation of a memorandum of understanding and the release of frozen Iranian assets. On Tuesday, the Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani held a separate meeting with Witkoff and Kushner. The U.S. envoys are not participating in the indirect technical talks between Washington and Tehran that began Wednesday, according to Reuters. The Amir's Wednesday meeting with Witkoff and Kushner signals continued high-level Qatari mediation, though no details of the agenda have been published.
