Trump sends Witkoff and son in law to Pakistan for Iran talks
US President Donald Trump is dispatching envoy Steve Witkoff and his son-in-law Jared Kushner to Pakistan for talks with Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi this weekend, according to a report.
CNN, citing administration officials, said the pair will take part in discussions with Araghchi in Islamabad.
Vice President JD Vance is not expected to attend, as Iran’s parliamentary speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf will also be absent.
However, Vance could still travel if the talks gain traction, with members of his team already on the ground and involved in the discussions, the report said.
