U.S.-Iran Talks Set To Resume In Pakistan As Trump Issues Stark Warning To Tehran

RNN Staff

President Donald Trump said a new round of negotiations between the United States and Iran will take place this week in Pakistan, while warning that failure to reach a deal could trigger a renewed military campaign.

Talks are expected to be held in Islamabad, with Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner representing the United States. Trump confirmed that Vice President JD Vance will not attend in person due to security concerns raised by the Secret Service.

According to the president, the decision was made with limited preparation time before the meetings. Trump indicated that while Vance remains involved, he will not travel to Pakistan for this phase of negotiations.

The talks come amid renewed tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, where Iran was accused of firing on commercial vessels despite a cease-fire agreement. Trump described the reported incident as a violation and criticized Tehran’s actions.

He said U.S. representatives would proceed with discussions but emphasized that the current offer on the table represents a final opportunity for Iran to reach an agreement.

Trump also did not rule out traveling to Pakistan himself, saying he would evaluate the progress of negotiations before making a decision about attending future meetings.

In public remarks, the president warned that if Iran rejects the deal, the United States is prepared to escalate militarily, including targeting critical infrastructure. He framed the negotiations as a decisive moment, signaling that the administration is prepared to shift quickly from diplomacy back to force if talks collapse.

The upcoming meetings are expected to play a key role in determining whether the fragile cease-fire holds or if the broader conflict resumes.
