CNN’s Alayna Treene reported that Vance will not go to Islamabad as planned, but he will go to policy meetings at the White House on Tuesday. Sources told Treene that it is still unclear if Vance’s trip will happen at all.
“We don’t know if this trip is definitely off,” she told The Situation Room anchors Wolf Blitzer and Pamela Brown. “All we do know is that it is definitely delayed and that we should expect to see now the vice president at the White House for meetings today, not leaving this morning on that plane as we had previously reported.”
Vice President JD Vance’s planned trip to Islamabad for Iran peace talks was delayed after he was called back to the White House amid uncertainty over Iran’s participation. The talks, led by Pakistan, aim to ease tensions between the U.S., Israel, and Iran before a two-week ceasefire ends. Previous negotiations failed after Iran refused to commit to abandoning nuclear weapons. Meanwhile, the U.S. continues blocking Iranian ports, and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian criticized the negotiations. Pakistan is urging both sides to extend the ceasefire and continue diplomatic talks, though President Trump says he prefers a permanent solution instead of another extension.
