Qatari Foreign Ministry spokesperson Majed al‑Ansari says there is still no final agreement yet on either Gaza or the Strait of Hormuz, stressing that Doha’s priority is a return to negotiations, a renewed ceasefire, and guaranteed freedom of navigation in Hormuz back to the pre‑war status quo under international law. He argues that recent escalations and civilian deaths in Gaza show which side is obstructing Trump’s phased peace plan and says Qatar, Pakistan and Oman are working closely as mediators—coordinating with Russia and others—to keep U.S.–Iran talks alive, avoid regional escalation, and eventually secure a comprehensive deal, while cautioning that no timelines can be set and there are currently no direct talks booked.
