Iran Says ‘No Plans’ for New Talks after US Seizes its Cargo Ship
The next phase of peace talks between the United States and Iran appears to be uncertain ahead of Wednesday’s ceasefire deadline
A US delegation headed by Vice-President JD Vance will travel to Pakistan “soon”, a source familiar with the peace moved told the BBC, but no timings are confirmed.
But Iran said it has “no plans for the next round” of negotiations in Islamabad – here’s the latest from Iranian officials
One sticking point for Iran is said to be the US naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, which escalated when the US attacked and seized an Iranian cargo ship on Sunday
“Vacate your engine room, vacate your engine room, we’re prepared to subject you to disabling fire’ the moment US navy seized the ship.
