US and Iran to Continue Talks in Pakistan

“Regardless, we won,” he stated at the White House before traveling to Florida. The negotiations aim to end the conflict between the two countries, which began on February 28th, with Pakistan as the host and mediator. “They have been in meetings for many hours. We will see what happens.” The United States and Iran will continue negotiations to resolve the conflict after a pause in the meeting of their representatives in Islamabad, as reported by the government of the Persian nation. “At the proposal of Pakistan and with the agreement of the Iranian and American negotiating teams, the Pakistan-mediated talks will continue with a new round after the Sunday pause,” the Iranian government said in its social media X account. According to Iranian news agency Tasnim, Iranian sources attributed the interruption to the “excessive and unreasonable demands” of the American side and urged Washington to “replace ambition with a realistic approach.” Despite this, the expert teams of both delegations continued to exchange texts during the pause. The talks began on Saturday with “optimistic” signals and the exchange of the first draft agreements, according to diplomatic sources consulted by EFE. They involve the US Vice President, JD Vance, and the President of the Iranian Parliament, Mohamad Baqer Qalibaf, marking the highest-level face-to-face contact between the two countries since the severing of diplomatic relations after the 1979 Islamic Revolution. US President Donald Trump downplayed the outcome of the negotiations.
