According to Pakistani journalist Anas Mallick, Doha is preparing for a new round of US-Iran talks, possibly next week, with Pakistan and Qatar acting as mediators to try to bridge the differences between the two sides. Previously, Israel's i24News, citing Turkish intelligence chief Kalin, reported that Qatar planned to arrange a meeting between Vance and Rezaei, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, in Doha next week. Subsequently, Iran's Press TV, citing Iranian officials, reported that Iran denied the meeting arrangement and reiterated that negotiations were contingent on the US fulfilling seven conditions.
