US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to travel to Pakistan for more Iran talks, White House says
The U.S. delegation will seek a second round of ceasefire talks as Pakistan presses to revive negotiations and Iran says the visit could be brief.
- Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are traveling to Pakistan on Saturday to meet Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi for renewed peace talks, the White House confirmed Friday.
- Earlier this week, President Donald Trump extended the ceasefire indefinitely to grant Iran time to prepare a "unified proposal" for ending the conflict, which has disrupted global shipping.
- While White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed the Iranians requested the meeting, Iranian state media asserts no official talks are scheduled between the two sides.
- Vice President J.D. Vance remains on standby in the U.S. to join negotiations if talks progress, signaling the administration's commitment to achieving a diplomatic resolution.
- Reopening the Strait of Hormuz could stabilize energy markets and lower regional tensions; failure risks escalating military and economic pressure on Tehran.
