United States President Donald Trump has signalled that he considers the US-Israeli war against Iran \u201ceffectively\u201d at an end, after meeting with mediators from Qatar.<\/p>\n

In a surprise briefing on Monday, Trump reiterated his position that the US had destroyed Iran\u2019s military. But his remarks suggested he faced pressure from allies in the Middle East to bring hostilities to a close.<\/p>\n

\u201cIran, militarily, is effectively over. We\u2019re just keeping it the status quo,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019re doing that really at the behest of countries that are their neighbours.\u201d<\/p>\n

The US president clarified that the \u201cstatus quo\u201d would involve continuing the US naval blockade against Iranian ports, as well as the newly announced Task Force Iron Gate, which seeks to cut off trade by land.<\/p>\n

\u201cMuch was discussed with respect to the Islamic Republic of Iran,\u201d Trump said.<\/p>\n

\u201cMost importantly, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait and others would prefer the status quo, that we remain as is \u2014 in other words, a continuation of the greatest naval blockade in the history of our country. Probably in the history of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s comments come shortly after he and Vice President JD Vance hosted Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani at the White House to discuss the Iran war.<\/p>\n

The prime minister posted on social media that he was \u201cgrateful for the positive discussions on reaching a deal and bringing peace to the region\u201d.<\/p>\n
