U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff and President Donald Trump’s son‑in‑law Jared Kushner are set to meet with mediators in Doha to discuss the Iran deal, but there are no planned high‑level talks with Iranian officials, according to Qatar’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson.

In a media briefing Tuesday, Majed Al‑Ansari said talks between the U.S. officials and mediators will focus on regional issues, including ongoing negotiations with Iran, but also the conflict in Lebanon. Witkoff and Kushner are set to meet with Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani during their trip, a senior admin official told TIME.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said an Iranian official will also be in Doha, but only to engage in talks with mediators regarding the interim peace agreement and details surrounding the potential release of frozen Iranian assets.

“No meeting at any level with the American side has been scheduled for the coming days,” he said.

There had been conflicting reports regarding the status of U.S.‑Iran talks, after tit‑for‑tat strikes throughout the weekend threatened to derail the fragile interim deal. Trump on Monday declared that Iran had “requested” a meeting and said it would be taking place in Doha the next day, but Iranian officials swiftly rejected the idea.

Trump and Iranian officials signed a Memorandum of Understanding on June 17, agreeing to an extended 60‑day cease‑fire to allow time for further negotiations to take place. That deadline is set to expire around mid‑August, yet there appears to have been little progress on technical talks.

A flare‑up of violence in and around the Strait of Hormuz has cast doubt over efforts to secure a full reopening of the vital waterway. The U.S. and Iran exchanged fire after a Singaporean‑flagged cargo ship in the Strait was struck on Thursday. Trump said Iran was responsible for the attack, and the U.S. soon launched retaliatory strikes. Iran responded by targeting U.S. military sites in Kuwait and Bahrain, bringing further instability to the Gulf region.

Washington and Tehran accused each other of violating the interim agreement. Although both sides have since agreed to stand down, tensions remain high. Baghaei on Tuesday said the recent strikes undoubtedly had a “negative impact on the ongoing process.”

There are also concerns that fighting between Israel and the Hezbollah militant group in Lebanon could escalate once more and derail future talks. Israel and Lebanon on Friday signed a framework agreement, but the broader regional volatility continues to cast a shadow over U.S.‑Iran diplomatic efforts.
