US Vice President JD Vance has shared new details about ongoing diplomatic efforts involving Iran. He said President Donald Trump is working on a major agreement rather than a limited deal. This effort is part of wider negotiations taking place in Islamabad.
According to Vance, Trump’s Iran Strategy focuses on a long-term and comprehensive settlement. The aim is to address nuclear concerns and regional security issues at the same time.
He explained that Trump’s Iran Strategy is built on two key conditions. First, Iran must permanently abandon any plans to develop nuclear weapons. Second, it must stop supporting groups described by the US as state-backed militancy.
Vance said earlier talks did not succeed because Washington is seeking a broader agreement. He added that the administration is not interested in short-term solutions.
As part of Trump’s Iran Strategy, economic incentives are also being considered. Vance stated that if Iran agrees to the terms, it could gain access to economic opportunities and international engagement.
He said President Trump personally instructed him to support diplomatic outreach. This included engaging with regional partners and participating in discussions held in Pakistan.
The Vice President acknowledged that mistrust between Washington and Tehran remains a major challenge. He said this gap cannot be closed quickly, even with ongoing talks.
Despite these difficulties, he described the situation as stable for now. He pointed to the continuation of a ceasefire as a positive sign.
Vance added that the current phase of diplomacy shows cautious progress. He suggested that Trump’s Iran Strategy is designed to combine pressure with incentives.
Officials believe the coming talks will be critical in determining whether a breakthrough is possible. However, no final agreement has been reached yet.
The discussions are expected to continue in the coming days, with multiple regional stakeholders involved. The US hopes that sustained engagement will reduce tensions and build trust over time.
Observers say Trump’s Iran Strategy reflects a shift toward broader geopolitical bargaining. It combines security demands with economic proposals to encourage compliance.
For now, both sides remain engaged, but deep disagreements still exist. The outcome of the ongoing diplomatic push remains uncertain.
