Iran had earlier said there were no plans for a direct meeting with a US delegation led by Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner.

US President Donald Trump has canceled a planned trip to Pakistan by special envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner for peace talks with Iran.

Trump cancels envoys' Pakistan trip for Iran talks, but insists it doesn't signal a return to war.

The United States will send a delegation to Pakistan this weekend for a new round of talks with Iranian officials, the White House said, as Washington tests whether a fragile cease-fire can translate into diplomatic progress.

Trump was to send emissaries Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to Islamabad, this time without Vice President JD Vance.

US President Donald Trump said that they hold all the cards in the war against Iran, hence his delegation is not going to make the 18-hour-long journey to Islamabad for the second round of discussions.
