US Vice-President JD Vance said talks in Islamabad failed because Iran would not commit to abandoning its nuclear weapons programme, while Iran’s parliament speaker said Washington must win Tehran’s trust. The discussions, part of a 14‑day ceasefire framework, underscored mutual distrust with no immediate agreement, as mediators seek to continue dialogue amid wider regional tensions around the Hormuz Strait and global oil markets.
