Vice President JD Vance announced that US-Iran nuclear negotiations held in Pakistan ended without an agreement after 21 hours of talks. The bad news is that we did not reach an agreement, Vance said. We had serious talks with Iran, but did not reach an agreement. Vance stated: This news is much worse for Iran than it is bad for the United States. So we are returning to the United States without reaching an agreement. On the substance of negotiations: We clearly defined our red lines; what we are flexible on and what we are not. We stated this as clearly as possible. I will not go into all the details because I do not want to make public what we negotiated privately for 21 hours. But the simple reality is that we need to see a clear commitment that they will not pursue nuclear weapons and will not pursue the tools that would allow rapid acquisition of nuclear weapons. I will emphasize again: their nuclear program, whatever it was, and the enrichment facilities they previously had, are gone. But the main question is: do we see a fundamental and real commitment from the Iranians not to move toward developing nuclear weapons? Not just now, not just two years from now, but in the long term? Again, we could not reach a point where the Iranians were willing to accept our conditions. I think we were very flexible and showed great cooperation. The president told us to come here in good faith and make our best effort to reach an agreement. We did that, but unfortunately we could not make progress. Naturally, we were in constant contact with Trump. Perhaps about six or even twelve times during these 21 hours we spoke with him. We were also in contact with Admiral Cooper, Pete, Marco, and the entire national security team. We spoke several times with Bessent [Treasury Secretary]. We are leaving here but we have put a very clear proposal on the table. This proposal is a specific framework that is our final and best offer. We will see if the Iranians accept it or not. Vance also thanked Pakistan's Prime Minister and Army Chief General Asim Munir, saying: Any shortcomings in negotiations were not due to the Pakistani side; they did an extraordinary job. The US delegation is now planning to leave Pakistan.
