After Iran said it canceled its participation in today’s technical talks with the United States amid mutual strikes in the Strait of Hormuz, the two countries have agreed to halt attacks on each other and to meet again on Tuesday in Doha to discuss the issue, Axios reports, citing an unnamed senior US official.
The report, also citing another US official and a source with knowledge of the details, says Tuesday’s talks were originally planned to take place in Switzerland, but the flareup has moved them to Qatar’s capital and changed their topic to the Hormuz standoff, as disputes and gaps remain despite the MOU reached earlier this month.
