The president and his team, particularly the special envoy (for the Middle East, Steve) Witkoff, continue to communicate with the Iranians,” Karoline Leavitt spokeswoman said at a news conference.

Questioned about possible dates after the He said there could be contacts with Tehran next week and that an agreement with Iran is no longer strictly necessary because of the damage to its atomic program, the spokesman commented that it was too early to offer details. “Be patient. We have just done this attack on Saturday night,” he said, referring to US bombing to Iran’s uranium enrichment plants in Isfahan, Natanz and Fordow.

Leavitt insisted that he had “extensively” talked to Steve Witkoff this morning and that, besides Iran, there is continuous communication with “The Qatar, which has been an amazing ally and partner throughout this process.” Qatar has been the main mediator, in coordination with the US, between Iran and Israel to facilitate dialogue and the adoption of a ceasefire on Monday.

And we see a new era in which perhaps some of these Gulf and Arab world states can join Abraham’s agreements,” Leavitt explained, referring to pacts to normalize relations with the Jewish state that have already been signed by countries such as Emirates, Sudan, Bahrain and Morocos.
