Witkoff and Kushner to travel to Pakistan soon
for Iran talks, says US official
U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and senior adviser Jared Kushner are expected to visit Pakistan this weekend for diplomatic talks with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, according to a CNN report citing officials.
The discussions mark a significant step in ongoing U.S.-Iran engagement efforts. Vice President JD Vance is not scheduled to attend at this stage, mirroring the absence of Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf.
However, Vance remains on standby and could travel to Islamabad if negotiations show meaningful progress, with his staff already set to participate.
