In a recent discussion with The Post, President Trump revealed that he anticipates peace negotiations with Iran to occur in Pakistan “very soon,” following a cease-fire agreement reached on Tuesday. However, there are concerns about Vice President JD Vance’s attendance due to security risks.
Pakistan has put forth plans to host a summit in Islamabad as early as Friday. This follows efforts by Trump’s negotiation team, including Vance and special envoy Steve Witkoff, who collaborated with Pakistani leaders to bring an end to 39 days of hostilities.
Stay updated with The Post’s live coverage on President Trump and national politics for breaking news and insightful analysis.
During a phone interview, Trump mentioned, “We’ll have Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, JD—maybe JD, I don’t know. There’s a question of safety, security,” highlighting the potential absence of Vance due to safety concerns.
The president expressed optimism about the timing of the talks, stating they are set to occur “very soon, actually—it’s going to take place very soon.”
On Tuesday, Trump accepted Iran’s 10-point counter-proposal as a tentative framework aimed at establishing a lasting peace agreement, though some conditions outlined in the proposal may be challenging to finalize.
Trump launched the war alongside Israel on Feb. 28, with the White House identifying four core objectives, including ending Tehranâs nuclear program, destroying its navy, wrecking its ballistic missile production sites and ending its support for proxies.
The cease-fire included an agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz to international shipping after Iran closed the crucial waterway throughout the war.
The final resolution of the conflict is likely to address Iranâs plan to charge tolls for ships and focus on the securing of deeply buried enriched uranium.
