Iran's foreign ministry said it will not host a US delegation this week, contradicting Trump's claim that new nuclear talks begin Monday. Trump said he called off strikes billed as the biggest since World War Two, after Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the UAE pushed him toward diplomacy. Al Jazeera reported Iran is still holding separate talks with Oman on Hormuz Strait shipping despite the denial.
