Qatari Prime Minister opens Tehran talks on Strait of Hormuz corridor and mine clearance

Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani arrived in Tehran to meet senior Iranian leadership, presenting a phased mediation framework for a joint navigational corridor and mine-clearing operations in the Strait of Hormuz.

Why this matters. A negotiated transit corridor provides the primary diplomatic track to reopen Persian Gulf shipping without direct U.S.-Iran bilateral concessions.
