Vance Leads Iran Talks in Pakistan

Vance Leads Iran Talks in Pakistan

The White House has announced that JD Vance will return to Pakistan on Monday to attempt to extend a fragile ceasefire with Iran.

The negotiations face significant hurdles as both nations accuse each other of violating the current truce in the Strait of Hormuz.

President Trump has maintained a dual-track strategy, offering a 'fair deal' while simultaneously threatening to destroy Iranian infrastructure if terms are rejected.

Iranian officials, including parliament speaker Mohammed Bagher Qalibaf, have signaled that a final agreement remains distant.
