Iran–U.S. Talks Likely as Vance and Ghalibaf May Arrive in Islamabad

Despite public denials from Iranian state media, regional officials confirm that Pakistan has cleared the way for a second round of talks aimed at preventing a return to full-scale hostilities following the recent U.S. seizure of an Iranian vessel.
