YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAmerican and Iranian negotiators have failed to reach an agreement after 21 hours of crunch talks in Islamabad, JD Vance has said.
The US Vice President touched down in Islamabad on Saturday morning to lead the high-stakes talks - which he said failed to produce any results after "Iran has chosen not to accept" the US' terms.
He was joined by special envoy Steve Witkoff and his son-in-law Jared Kushner - where they came face-to-face with members of the Iranian regime as a two-week ceasefire agreement hangs in the balance.
"The bad news is we have not reached an agreement," Vance said in an update.
He added that the US had after an "affirmative commitment" that Iran would not attempt to develop nuclear weapons.
He said: "Do we see a fundamental commitment of will for the Iranians not to develop a nuclear weapon... for the long term? We haven't seen that yet."
The US vice president added that various other issues had been covered, and argued that US negotiators were "quite flexible" and "quite accommodating"."
"But again... we just could not get to a situation where the Iranians were willing to accept our terms," he said.
He added: "We leave here with a very simple proposal; a method of understanding that is our final and best offer. We'll see if the Iranians accept it."
