Asharq News reports Trump chose continued pressure and a naval blockade

Asharq News reported on November 11, citing Axios, that US Secretary of State Marco Rubio told G7 counterparts on Tuesday that Trump chose to continue economic pressure and the naval blockade rather than resume strikes or make a deal. The report says Trump described another round of strikes as highly unlikely and apparently unnecessary. It also says Qatar’s prime minister saw more room for diplomatic efforts after meeting Trump, while the first step toward de-escalation and possible confidence-building measures remained unresolved. The report gives no end date for the reported policy and does not establish an agreement.
