Deadlock in Islamabad as first round talks fail
The weekend diplomatic talks were just a failure of the past discussion. The first round of talks earlier this month was hosted in Islamabad, and it was attended by US Vice President JD Vance and Iranian Parliamentary Speaker MB Ghalibaf. The talks between the two sides continued for 21 hours without any breakthrough.
Trump cancels envoy trip citing leadership confusion
US President Donald Trump had cancelled the Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Senior Adviser Jared Kushner’s trip to Islamabad due to confusion within Iran’s leadership.
In a post on Truth Social, he said, “I just cancelled the trip of my representatives going to Islamabad, Pakistan, to meet with the Iranians. Too much time wasted on travelling, too much work! Besides which, there is tremendous infighting and confusion within their ‘leadership.’ Nobody knows who is in charge, including them.”
He didn’t just end there, as the closing note read, we have all the cards and they have none, so if they want to talk, then all they have to do is call.
