According to the “Israel Today” newspaper, Trump is scheduled to meet with Qatari Prime Minister Al-Thani in Washington on Monday. This seems to indicate that Qatar is speeding up mediation to push the US to reach a new temporary agreement with Iran. Two diplomatic sources familiar with the negotiations revealed that Al-Thani brought a plan for reopening the Strait of Hormuz, which has already been approved by Iran. According to the plan, the US will lift its maritime and economic blockade against Iran. In exchange, Iran will stop attacking ships and oil tankers in the Gulf countries. According to the proposed agreement, $8 billion of Iranian funds held in Qatar will be unfrozen. Iran appears to have abandoned the requirement to control the Strait of Hormuz and charge tolls for passing ships. However, Tehran is still unwilling to discuss its nuclear program, or even release a signal to begin negotiations on it.
