United States President Donald Trump has announced that a US delegation will travel to Pakistan for a new round of negotiations with Iran, in an effort to reduce tensions between the two countries.
In a post on social media, Trump announced that US representatives will arrive in Islamabad on Monday evening. According to reports from the White House, the delegation will be led by Vice President JD Vance.
A White House official confirmed to the BBC that the delegation will also include Trump's advisers, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, who have also participated in previous rounds of talks.
However, Tehran has not yet confirmed its participation. Iranian state media reports that officials will not attend as long as the US blockade remains in place.
The latest round of negotiations, which lasted about 21 hours, ended without an agreement, as Washington and Tehran remained at odds over key issues, including Iran's nuclear program.
