The claim that US Vice President JD Vance has left for Pakistan is false. According to an AP report, he was seen at the White House in Washington on Monday morning. His convoy reached the White House at around 11:00 in the morning. This made it clear that Trump’s claim was false. Earlier, in an interview with *New York Post*, Trump had claimed that Vance had already left for Islamabad.
However, American media organizations like CNN and *The New York Times* had cast doubt on Trump’s claim. According to reports, JD Vance may leave for Iran on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Pakistan Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi met Iranian Ambassador Reza Amiri Moghaddam; During this meeting, possible talks with the US and the issue of reducing regional tensions were discussed.
Suspense continues regarding US-Iran talks
Amid rising tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, there is uncertainty over whether the second round of talks between the two countries will take place in Pakistan or not. Iran has said that the US naval blockade is a violation of the cease-fire agreement and that America’s threatening rhetoric is making the situation worse. Under these circumstances, the prospects for dialogue appear slim.
In contrast, a report by Al Jazeera, citing sources, suggests that the talks could last not just a day, but several days. The aim is to sign a temporary agreement—specifically, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU)—that will advance a cease-fire and allow approximately 60 days to draft a comprehensive peace agreement. However, it all depends on Iran’s participation.
