## Summary

Qatar’s Prime Minister said mediation between Iran and the United States is continuing, with the aim of preventing further escalation. Speaking at Oxford University, he warned that the crisis “cannot be left unresolved” and said Qatar remains engaged in efforts to contain it.

He said Qatar had worked with US officials over the previous couple of weeks and credited voices in Tehran with helping prevent the situation from spiralling out of control. Al Thani said willingness to seek a solution remained after the US midterm election, though diplomatic exchanges might be less active than they had been a few days earlier. Qatar has also rejected reports that negotiations have failed.
