Qatar's prime minister and foreign minister, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman, briefed his French, British, German, Italian and Saudi counterparts in Paris on his talks with Trump, The National reports. It says the meeting lasted less than an hour.
French diplomatic sources said ministers focused on the Iran crisis and its 'security and economic repercussions' for the region and the international community. The National says the meeting was seen as a sign diplomacy may be on track, but it reports no agreed outcome.
According to The National, France and the UK have offered to support Hormuz security with an international naval mission. That offer would apply only after the US and Iran settle on a diplomatic solution.
The National also reports that Washington wants Iran to rid itself of nuclear material before sanctions relief, which Tehran says it has no intention of doing. It says Qatar's message to the Americans has been to avoid renewed strikes.
Egypt's Badr Abdelatty, a guest at the G7, was also present, according to The National.
