US and Iran Agree to Meet Over Strait of Hormuz Dispute

Trump said the meeting would take place in the Qatari capital of Doha on Tuesday, although there has been no official confirmation from Iran. Earlier, a senior US official had also said that the two countries would meet in the Qatari capital on Tuesday. The main purpose of the meeting is to resolve the dispute over the Strait of Hormuz. Officials had said that both sides have decided to stop all military activity and attacks. For the time being, both sides are ready to withdraw so that ships can move without hindrance in international waters. The United States is trying to maintain the ongoing temporary agreement with Iran, which has led to tensions in the Strait of Hormuz in recent days. This is expected to lead to a spike in oil prices and inflation in the United States. Earlier, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian had said that the six billion dollars deposited in Qatar would be released at a time when the Persian Gulf, the US and Pakistan are expected to resume talks.
