Trump says he has meetings on Iran on Monday

Iranian and US officials head to New York this week for UN talks as Qatar works to broker a deal

On Monday, President Trump said he has meetings on Iran that day. He also said Iran "is not doing well" and did not say what he meant.

Officials from both countries are converging on New York that week for talks at the United Nations.

Qatar says it is working to facilitate an agreement between Washington and Tehran and has pointed to the possibility of a short-term deal. Iran's top security official, Rezaei, said on Saturday that Tehran had sent conditions to end the conflict to the US through Qatar and was waiting on Trump's response. Iran separately confirmed that Qatar had relayed its conditions to Washington.

Vice President Vance said oil is still flowing from Iran and that the US will work to protect Navy vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. He said the Iran talks will continue at the UN that week. Trade representative Greer said nothing is off the table on Iran sanctions. Separately, Axios reported that Trump considered military action against Yemen's Houthis over the weekend before pulling back, amid rising tension in Yemen and Saudi Arabia. In Congress, Senator Grassley is pressing Trump for a diesel export embargo as pump prices rise, comparing it to the soybean and wheat embargoes of the 1970s.

Trump's meetings signal active engagement on Iran at a moment when both his foreign minister and Iran's are arriving in New York, with Qatar mediating and Iran's top security official already having laid out terms for ending the regional conflict. The talks remain exploratory rather than a sign of a policy shift, leaving the situation unresolved without moving materially toward either escalation or a deal.
