Why 21 hours of US-Iran talks in Islamabad ended without a deal

AI Generated (Gemini)

Vice President Vance said negotiations with Iran ended after 21 hours without an agreement because Tehran refused to make a 'fundamental commitment' never to develop nuclear weapons. Vance told reporters in Islamabad that the US had been 'quite flexible, quite accommodating' but Iran chose 'not to accept' American terms. Two Pakistani officials said talks between delegation heads would resume after a break, with technical teams still meeting.
