The Trump administration announced Friday that U.S. officials will travel to Islamabad, Pakistan, to meet with Iranian officials in an effort to negotiate a possible end to the war, as the U.S. blockade of Iranian ports and shipping continues to cripple the regime’s economy.
President Trump will be sending special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. Vice President JD Vance, who led the U.S. team during the last round of negotiations, could also be brought in if Iran demonstrates a willingness to reach a serious agreement.
