Vice President JD Vance's trip to Pakistan for Iran peace talks was halted indefinitely due to uncertainty over Iran's participation. The Iranian delegation had not confirmed its participation, citing internal divisions and concerns over the US naval blockade of Iranian ports. Iran's parliamentary speaker, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, accused Washington of seeking Iran's surrender rather than a genuine settlement. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump stated that the US is prepared to resume bombing Iran if a ceasefire extension is not reached.
