J.D. Vance was in contact with Pakistani mediators regarding the Iran war until Tuesday.
Reuters reported on Wednesday, April 1st, quoting a knowledgeable source, that J.D. Vance, the Vice President of the United States, was in contact with Pakistani mediators regarding the Iran war until Tuesday.
According to this source, Vance privately conveyed the message that Donald Trump is ready to accept a ceasefire if certain U.S. demands are met.
Vance also conveyed a message described as decisive by the source and warned that if Tehran does not agree, pressures on Iran’s infrastructure will increase.
The source added that Pakistan is playing the role of mediator between the United States and Iran.
According to Reuters, Vance has taken on a more prominent role in ending a war that has now entered its fifth week.
He, who is widely recognized as one of the potential candidates to succeed Trump in the 2028 presidential election, has adopted a cautious approach to this war, reflecting his longstanding skepticism about prolonged U.S. military engagements abroad.
The source said the team Trump referred to as negotiators includes Vance, Marco Rubio the Secretary of State, and American envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, who are still involved in the process.
Trump had warned that the U.S. would target Iran’s infrastructure but has postponed such attacks on Iran’s power grid until April 6th to reach an agreement with Tehran.
