Vance leads indirect negotiations with Iran

U.S. Vice President JD Vance has been engaged in indirect talks with Iran over a potential ceasefire and nuclear program discussions. He has been in regular contact with mediators from Qatar and Pakistan, including Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani and Pakistani military chief Asim Munir. A technical meeting between Washington and Tehran is being considered, although it has not yet been finalized. Former Trump envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are also involved in the negotiations. While diplomatic efforts are ongoing, U.S. forces remain prepared for a possible offensive amid a stalemate in negotiations.
