Vice President JD Vance was scheduled to head to Pakistan to lead a second round of peace talks with Iran, but is apparently delayed for “additional policy meetings” at the White House.

No word on whether the current cease-fire (set to expire Wednesday) will be extended. Iran apparently hasn’t confirmed it will even attend the new round of negotiations.
From the Washington Post:
President Donald Trump accused Iran of violating the ceasefire “numerous times” in a post on Truth Social early Tuesday.
In a separate interview with CNBC, he said the United States is “going to end up with a great deal” from the negotiations. “I think they have no choice. We’ve taken out their navy, we’ve taken out their air force, we’ve taken out their leaders,” Trump said.
When asked whether the U.S. would resume bombing if a deal is not reached by Wednesday, Trump said that he expects to “be bombing, because that is a better attitude to go in with.” He added that the military is “raring to go.”
So. Much. Winning.
