US President Donald Trump has indicated he is open to a personal meeting with Iranian leaders as negotiations are scheduled to take place in Islamabad, Pakistan. In an interview, Trump dismissed Iran's claims of not participating in the talks, expressing confidence that 'nobody is playing games' regarding the negotiations. However, reports suggest that Vice President JD Vance had not yet departed for Pakistan, creating confusion about the US delegation's status. Meanwhile, Iranian officials have not confirmed their attendance, with Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei expressing doubts about US seriousness in advancing diplomacy. Despite this, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian emphasized the importance of using diplomatic channels to reduce tensions, stating that 'war is in no one’s interest' following recent hostilities that resulted in significant casualties.
