Vance Trip for Iran Peace Talks Delayed, Summoned to White House

Vice President JD Vance was expected to board a plane and lead a U.S. negotiating team in talks in Pakistan’s capital, Islamabad, but was unexpectedly called back to the White House on Tuesday amid uncertainty over Iran’s participation.

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.
