Trump made the assessment after meeting Qatar’s prime minister, a key regional mediator, and said further U.S. strikes were unlikely while warning that American forces remained ready. Iran’s denial of planned talks underscores the fragile nature of the development, which follows sustained regional violence, Israeli strikes in Gaza, and continuing Houthi-related fighting in Yemen. Markets reacted positively, with major U.S. stock indexes rising sharply, but the absence of a confirmed agreement means the situation remains fluid.
