US-Iran peace talks in Pakistan

The talks represent the highest-level direct engagement between the two nations in decades, with senior envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff joining the U.S. team.

Iranian representatives, led by Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, have arrived with a list of demands including sanctions relief and a ceasefire in Lebanon.

President Trump has warned that military action will intensify if the summit fails to produce a definitive agreement.

Key obstacles remain, including the continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz and ongoing Israeli strikes against Hezbollah.
