On 10 April 2026, CNN reported that U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance left Washington, D.C., bound for Islamabad, Pakistan, to participate in talks aimed at ending the conflict involving the U.S., Israel, and Iran. He told reporters to warn Iran not to "play games," emphasizing the U.S. is ready to negotiate if Iran is sincere but will not accept attempts to delay or evade an agreement, as outlined by President Trump’s approach.
Vance, the lead negotiator, stated the talks are showing positive signs and that the U.S. is open to engagement if Iran participates sincerely. He said if Iran negotiates in good faith, the U.S. will extend a hand, but if Iran tries to play games, the negotiating team will not be receptive.
He also mentioned that President Trump has clearly established the negotiation framework but did not disclose further details.
