After hours of intense negotiations in Islamabad, US Vice President JD Vance confirmed that talks between Washington and Tehran have ended without a deal, with both sides unable to agree on key terms. The discussions, aimed at easing tensions and establishing a workable framework, ultimately stalled over non-negotiable red lines and limited flexibility from both parties. Vance stated that the US presented what it considered a clear and realistic proposal, emphasizing that negotiations were conducted in good faith. However, Iranian officials reportedly found the terms unacceptable, leading to a complete deadlock. While the United States has indicated that diplomatic channels remain open, the failure to reach an agreement raises concerns about escalating tensions in the region. Vance also suggested that the consequences of the breakdown could weigh more heavily on Iran, signaling a potential shift in strategic pressure moving forward. WATCH

US Vice President JD Vance said Iranian negotiators may have misunderstood the scope of the agreement, adding that the ceasefire applied to Iran and US allies but not Lebanon. However, Pakistan had earlier announced that the truce applied everywhere including Lebanon. Hours later, Israel carried out strikes in Lebanon, raising questions about whether the ceasefire terms were miscommunicated.
