- On Wednesday, Vice President JD Vance stated in Budapest that President Donald Trump is "impatient" to make progress on the Iran war, directing his negotiating team to engage in good faith.

- While Iran's Supreme National Security Council claimed the United States accepted an "undeniable, historic, and crushing defeat," Vance emphasized that the United States retains extraordinary economic and military leverage if negotiations fail.
