US-Iran Talks in Pakistan End Without Agreement
• This Day • General News
After 21 hours of negotiations in Pakistan, senior officials from the United States and Iran failed to reach a final agreement. Vice President JD Vance, speaking at a press briefing, expressed gratitude for Pakistan's leadership and the efforts of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir in facilitating the dialogue. Despite engaging in substantial discussions, the talks did not yield a breakthrough, primarily due to Iran's refusal to accept U.S. proposals regarding its nuclear program. Vance reiterated that the U.S. administration, under President Donald Trump, remains focused on ensuring Iran does not develop nuclear weapon capabilities. The discussions also touched on the issue of frozen Iranian assets. Vance described the U.S. delegation's approach as flexible and in good faith, but ultimately, no agreement was achieved. He confirmed that the U.S. delegation remained in close contact with President Trump throughout the negotiations.
