Iran has called on Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Oman to urge U.S. President Donald Trump to pressure Israel into a ceasefire, offering flexibility in nuclear talks in return, sources told Reuters on Monday.
Tehran has approached Gulf countries to help mediate a ceasefire with Israel by appealing directly to U.S. President Donald Trump, five regional and Iranian sources told Reuters.
The request, conveyed over the weekend, asks Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Oman to press Washington to use its influence to bring an immediate halt to Israel's military operations against Iran. In exchange, Tehran signaled it would show flexibility in ongoing nuclear negotiations, according to one of the Iranian sources.
The diplomatic push came as Gulf leaders and senior diplomats held urgent calls across the region - including with Tehran and Washington - to prevent the spiraling Israel-Iran conflict from turning into a wider regional war.
A Gulf source close to government officials said the Gulf states are “deeply concerned the conflict will spin out of control,” and have urged the United States to rein in Israeli military action and return to nuclear talks with Iran.
Qatar, Oman and Saudi Arabia have each reportedly conveyed these messages to Washington in recent days.
