Trump says US negotiators will be in Pakistan on Monday for talks with Iran

Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and adviser Jared Kushner are expected to join talks as the two sides remain divided on nuclear limits and shipping rights.

  • President Donald Trump announced on Sunday that U.S. representatives are traveling to Islamabad for a second round of peace talks with Iran, threatening to destroy Iranian infrastructure if a deal is not reached.
  • Iran reasserted control over the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday after briefly reopening it, claiming it cannot restore transit while the U.S. blockade of Iranian ports continues.
  • Revolutionary Guard gunboats fired on tankers near the strait on Saturday, while Parliamentary Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf warned that "gaps remain significant" in talks despite diplomatic progress.
  • Pakistani Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar is mediating between Washington and Tehran to extend the two-week ceasefire set to expire Wednesday, as the standoff threatens global energy markets.
  • The U.S. military reportedly prepares to seize Iran-linked tankers to pressure Tehran into reopening the strait, which carries about 20 per cent of global oil supplies, raising stakes for a fragile deal.
