Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India and US President Donald Trump engaged in a 40-minute phone call amid rising tensions in West Asia following unsuccessful US-Iran peace negotiations in Islamabad. This conversation, their third this year, follows the escalation of conflict after US and Israeli strikes on Iran on February 28. The recent US-Iran talks lasted nearly 21 hours but ended without an agreement, further complicating a fragile two-week ceasefire. US officials attributed the collapse to Iran's refusal to abandon its nuclear program, while Iran accused the US of derailing the discussions. US Vice President JD Vance stated that the US needs an affirmative commitment from Iran regarding nuclear weapons, while Iranian parliamentary speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf insisted the responsibility lies with Washington to build trust.
