Following strikes between the U.S. and Iran in the Strait of Hormuz over the weekend, a Trump administration official said the two sides would “stand down for now,” and another official confirmed they had agreed to meet Tuesday in Doha, Qatar. Speaking in the Oval Office on Monday, President Donald Trump described the upcoming discussions as “perhaps important, perhaps not,” adding that military operations were nearly complete. The remarks came after Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian posted that Tehran would honor its memorandum with Washington if the U.S. did the same, signaling continued openness to diplomacy despite the exchange of fire.
