Iranian delegation arrives in Doha, talks on Washington's fast-track deal

The agreement under discussion includes reducing the initial talks period from 60 days to two days under the framework of the agreement between the parties

        Doha: An Iranian delegation has arrived in the Qatari capital Doha, where a possible agreement between Washington and Tehran is being discussed. At a time when there is disagreement within the US administration on the way to deal with Iran, which includes supporting the resumption of talks and continuing the position of economic and military pressure.

Initial talks

    According to the American newspaper, the agreement under discussion includes reducing the initial talks period from 60 days to two days under the framework of accelerating ongoing efforts between the parties to reach an agreement.
 

   The Wall Street Journal explained that there is a division within the US administration on the resolution of the crisis with Iran, and pointed out that US envoy Steve Witkoff supports a diplomatic path to reach an agreement with Tehran and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, while Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Treasury Secretary Scott Besant are advocating for tightening economic sanctions and continuing the blockade on Iran.

   The disagreement comes at a time when US President Donald Trump is faced with different options regarding the next step, including ending the war through a negotiated agreement or continuing to pressure Tehran, while regional movements are also underway to avoid a renewed military conflict.

Mediation efforts

   Qatari efforts to advance talks between Washington and Tehran have intensified in recent days, as Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani contacted US Vice President JD Vance and Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff Field Marshal Asim Munir to discuss possible opportunities for resuming talks, including holding a technical meeting at the experts’ level between the two sides.

   Similarly, Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad discussed mediation efforts with US President Donald Trump. He stressed the importance of continuing dialogue, avoiding tensions, and ensuring freedom of navigation and securing energy supplies.

   In this context, the Qatari International Media Office issued a statement confirming the continuation of Doha’s mediation efforts in coordination with Washington and Tehran. It denied circulating reports that attributed statements attributed to the Qatari Prime Minister about the failure to reach an agreement. They called them misleading claims and said their statements had been distorted.

 
  The statement also stressed that both sides were continuing to work towards reaching an agreement. They warned that the purpose of publishing these claims through fake accounts was to thwart diplomatic efforts.

 

JD Vance steps up efforts to create a separate political narrative for the upcoming election

      Washington: US Vice President JD Vance has stepped up efforts to create his own political identity and narrative for the 2028 presidential election after the Republican Party's defeat in the mid-term elections.
 
     In the final days of the election campaign, JD Vance, instead of defending President Donald Trump's policies, included issues such as economic nationalism, cautious behavior in foreign policy, public safety and inflation among his priorities.

     In his statement on social media, JD Vance called the Iran war one of the main reasons for the Republican Party's electoral defeat and stressed the need to end the war soon, provide relief to the people from inflation and review US foreign policy.

    He also highlighted the need to re-evaluate relations with Israel, while according to sources close to the White House and JD Vance, his stance is not a disagreement or rebellion with President Trump, but part of the Republican Party's future strategy in the context of the election results.

    On the other hand, President Trump has acknowledged the increase in petroleum product prices due to the Iran war as a reason for his electoral loss, but he has also defended the decision to go to war.

   J.D. Vance has not yet officially announced his candidacy for the 2028 presidential election, but he is being considered one of the strongest possible presidential candidates for the Republican Party.

On the other hand, Qatar has presented a new diplomatic formula to resolve the ongoing dispute between Iran and the United States and reduce tensions in the region. According to a report by the British newspaper The Guardian, Qatar is trying to persuade Iran to allow UN inspectors to inspect its nuclear facilities. The report said that the Qatari proposal also emphasizes allowing inspections of Iranian nuclear facilities affected by the US bombing.

The head of the Iranian National Islamic Council also criticized Admiral Brad Cooper, the head of US Central Command, saying that he has become a podcaster. 

     Meanwhile, the US Central Command (CENTCOM) has announced the establishment of a new task force, Iron Gate, to restrict the movement of goods through Iran's land trade routes and the Caspian Sea. According to CENTCOM, the head of US Central Command, Admiral Brad Cooper, has directed the establishment of the task force, the main purpose of which is to prevent the transfer of advanced weapons, dual-use technology and embargoed goods to Iran. The US Central Command said that Task Force Iron Gate will work to monitor and restrict the movement of goods through Iran's land borders and the Caspian Sea. The new task force will include about 20 civilian and military personnel, while its headquarters is established in Tampa, Florida, US. CENTCOM said that the task force will work with other relevant agencies of the US government to limit the possibilities of Iran's military reserves being replenished and to prevent the supply of modern military equipment to Iran. Restricting Iran's sources of illegal income is also an important task force. The objectives include.

     According to the US State Department, Iran is the only country in the world that does not have nuclear weapons, but it is enriching uranium to such a high level. Iran's Revolutionary Guards announced the lifting of a self-imposed ban on the flight range of ballistic missiles to 2,000 kilometers, after which tensions in the region and fears of a possible new war have increased. 

    According to the foreign news agency Associated Press (AP), Revolutionary Guards spokesman Brigadier General Hossein Mohebbi said during a press conference in Tehran that the ban on the range of missiles for Iran has now been lifted. General Hossein Mohebbi said that Iran will demonstrate its defensive capabilities in practice rather than just making statements. However, he did not clarify whether Iran currently has ballistic missiles with a range of more than 2,000 kilometers.

 

Israeli President to Invite Netanyahu Opponent Gadi Eisenkot to Form Government

  Israeli President Isaac Herzog has decided to invite opposition leader Gadi Eisenkot to form a new government.

   According to a statement issued by the Israeli president’s office, the Israeli president will formally invite Eisenkot to form a government this evening, after which Eisenkot will have 28 days to form a government.

  Former army chief Gadi Eisenkot is Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s strongest political rival.

   Netanyahu, who has served as the longest-serving prime minister in Israel’s history, is still trying to stay in office after losing his religious and nationalist coalition’s majority in the October 27 elections, and his coalition still emerges as the largest bloc in parliament.

   Earlier, the anti-Netanyahu bloc led by Gadi Eisenkot had refused to form an alliance with Arab parties that could give them a majority in the Knesset, but Arab leaders, angered by the policies of Netanyahu and his far-right allies, still nominated Eisenkot during long negotiations with President Isaac Herzog.

   On the other hand, Benjamin Netanyahu has urged the parties in the opposition bloc to form a national government with the parties of his outgoing government coalition.

   At the same time, he has said that a government formed with Arab parties would destroy the country. Netanyahu calls these parties “supporters of terrorists.”

   Referring to Eisenkot, Netanyahu claimed that “there is someone who wants to swear in a government with the supporters of terrorists in a hurry next week.” Regarding the Arab parties, he added, “This is an attempt to form a government in the State of Israel with those who want to abolish the State of Israel itself.”

   Netanyahu alleged that “a government that relies on Hamas supporters will not fight Hamas,” nor will it defend Israeli soldiers operating in Gaza and Lebanon.

   He also expressed fears of civil war in Israel, warning that if a government supported by Arab parties is formed, the same violent riots witnessed in Europe in recent weeks will be repeated in Israel.

Netanyahu claimed that “with this type of government, Israel will not be able to exist.”

         Washington: After a stunning victory in the midterm elections in the United States, the Democratic Party has announced to hold President Donald Trump accountable for his policies and limit his powers, which will lead to political tension and legislative deadlock in Washington for the next two years There is a fear of a recession. Democrats have won a majority in the Senate by winning 54 seats, while the House of Representatives has also increased by 30 seats. Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries has said that his party's priorities will include solving the problems of inflation faced by the people and holding the Trump administration accountable. In his first public address after the election defeat, President Trump gave a tour of the new ballroom under construction in the White House and said that he wants to make the building the best as a symbol of America. After the new Congress meets in January, Democrats will be able to use the powers to launch investigations against the Trump administration, impose conditions on important legislation and block the approval of presidential nominations.

         The first resignation from the Trump administration after the defeat in the US midterm elections has come to light. US Assistant Attorney General Hermit Dhillon resigned from her post. On the other hand, US Secretary of Defense Pat Hegseth has refused to resign and has announced that she will face impeachment. Pat Hegseth said that he is not one to back down, the next few months and years are very important for his department and the United States. Republican Congressman Thomas Massie has announced that he will bring the impeachment resolution against Pat Hegseth next week.

         Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump has said that he will decide soon whether to resume large-scale military operations against Iran. His statement came after a meeting with national security advisers, in which the possibility of new attacks against Iran, maintaining economic pressure and a diplomatic agreement to end the war were discussed. The American website Axios claimed that Trump and his top national security advisers discussed the issue of Iran for the first time since the US mid-term elections. Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, Trump said that he is considering whether further military action is necessary to prevent Iran's nuclear program from being revived. He said that we will now decide whether we want to take further strikes to ensure that Iran's nuclear program is completely destroyed and that this will never happen again.

        A US official told Axios that US Central Command (CENTCOM) is finalizing preparations for possible new attacks on Iran, but it has not yet received any new orders from Washington. The reason for the possible increase in military operations may be the arrival of the US Navy's third aircraft carrier battle group in the Middle East. US Vice President JD Vance supported the American people's demand to end the Iran war and review relations with Israel, including prioritizing US interests over Israel. He said that the Republicans' election campaign did not effectively address economic issues, and differences within the party over the reasons for the defeat will come to light in the coming days. According to the US website Axios, JD Vance has given the impression of increasing the political distance from President Trump.
