US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to travel to Pakistan for more Iran talks, White House says
- On Saturday, U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner departed for Islamabad, Pakistan, to resume ceasefire talks with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi amid a fragile diplomatic standoff.
- The mission follows failed April 12 negotiations and a continued U.S. naval blockade that Tehran claims violates the ceasefire agreement, creating energy market volatility as both sides demand preconditions.
- White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated the U.S. is "always willing to give diplomacy a chance," yet Iranian state media denied any direct meetings are scheduled, with Pakistani officials serving as intermediaries.
- Araghchi arrived in Islamabad on Friday for bilateral consultations with Pakistani officials, while Vice President JD Vance remains on standby in the United States should negotiations progress this weekend.
- Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth described the U.S. naval blockade as "ironclad," asserting that economic pressure will persist until Tehran abandons its nuclear program and reopens the Strait of Hormuz.
