U.S. Representatives to Travel to Pakistan for Iran Negotiations
Gazeta Express News – April 19, 2026
A team of U.S. representatives is scheduled to travel to Pakistan to engage in negotiations with Iran, according to reports.
This initiative follows previous discussions involving Vice President JD Vance, who participated in a round of talks with Iranian officials in Pakistan last week. Vice President Vance stated that the American delegation departed with a “very simple proposal,” which is currently awaiting Iranian acceptance. The negotiations are being facilitated by Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, a real estate investor and former advisor to Donald Trump.
Witkoff has previously been involved in diplomatic efforts, including mediating discussions between Hamas and Israel regarding the situation in Gaza, and has also contributed to U.S. talks concerning the conflict in Ukraine. Special Envoy Jared Kushner is also part of the team.
The purpose of the meetings in Pakistan is to explore potential pathways for dialogue with Iran. The U.S. continues to assess the Iranian response to the presented proposal.
Further details regarding the specific terms of the proposal are not yet available. The team’s presence in Pakistan underscores the ongoing diplomatic efforts to address the situation.
