Trump has recently moved warships into the region and has threatened to strike Iran unless it agrees to a number of his demands.
That includes freezing its nuclear program, reducing its stockpile of ballistic missiles, and ending support for militant groups.
Middle Eastern diplomats tell The Times they want the Americans to focus just on Iran's nuclear program.
They're worried that the other demands could doom the talks before they even get started.
Hiroko Tabuchi covers the environment and pollution for The Times.
She's been reporting on how the Trump administration's plans for Venezuela and its oil have set off alarm bells in one small American town.
It sits on the Gulf Coast, and it has a massive, specialized Chevron refinery.
It's one of the few places in the country that can process the specific kind of oil that comes from Venezuela.
Jiroko says that since the administration has moved to boost Venezuelan oil exports, residents there are bracing for what that could mean for them.
One resident told Heroco that sometimes the air smells like, quote, acid strong enough to take your breath.
And Chevron's own monitors show occasional spikes in benzene, a carcinogen.
Now, with the possibility that more Venezuelan oil could start being processed next door, some people there are doubling down on demands for Chevron to buy out their houses and pay for them to move elsewhere.
One resident of 30 years said she didn't mind the oil giant operating there, but said, quote, just get us all out.
For its part, Chevron says it has safely processed Venezuelan-style oil for decades.
It's been noncommittal about the resident's buyout requests, but said that it's open to ways to, quote, collaborate with the community.
A company spokesman told The Times, our employees live in Pascagoula, too.
And finally, Americans' interest in Korean pop culture has been building for years.
Whether it's Squid Game, K-pop, K-pop demon hunters.
And now that obsession is translating into more and more Americans wanting to learn Korean.
Universities from California to Arkansas are expanding their courses in Korean language and culture.
