US Vice President Returns to Islamabad After Iran Withdraws from Talks
US Vice President JD Vance is set to lead an American delegation back to Islamabad this week. He aims to restart negotiations with Iran after last week’s talks ended without agreement. Vance will be joined by advisers Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. Their first round of direct discussions lasted 21 hours but failed to bridge key differences. Shortly after, Iranian state media said Tehran would not send representatives for a second meeting, citing a recent US naval action in the Strait of Hormuz as a breach of the ceasefire. With a two-week truce nearing its end, the stakes are high. The US has urged Iran to accept a proposed deal or face further consequences for infrastructure targets if it refuses to compromise.
