Historic US-Iran Peace Talks Begin

Vice President JD Vance is leading the American delegation in Islamabad, marking the most significant face-to-face diplomatic engagement between Washington and Tehran since 1979.

The negotiations are taking place under heavy security at the Serena Hotel and the Jinnah Convention Center as both sides navigate a fragile two-week ceasefire.

Key agenda items include the status of the Strait of Hormuz, the conflict in Lebanon, and potential relief from crippling economic sanctions.

Despite the historic nature of the meeting, officials warn of significant hurdles as Iran demands a halt to Israeli strikes and the release of frozen assets.
