Qatar describes an institutional US–Iran negotiation framework and 60-day maritime arrangements
Qatar’s Prime Minister said the US–Iran memorandum created political and technical negotiation tracks, including safe commercial passage during a 60-day period, mine-removal arrangements and a hotline for disputes. He reiterated that Qatar views Hormuz as an international waterway. Horizon reads the signal as a decision input, not as proof of automatic demand.
