Fresh reports suggest the United States and Iran may resume in-person negotiations within days, ahead of the expiration of a fragile ceasefire, according to Reuters and other outlets.
Officials told Reuters that talks could restart in Pakistan later this week or early next week, though no final schedule has been confirmed. Earlier negotiations in Islamabad ended without an agreement, with both sides clashing over Iran’s nuclear program.

Vice President JD Vance said the next move rests with Tehran, while Iranian officials accused Washington of acting in bad faith.
The breakdown in talks prompted President Donald Trump to order a blockade targeting Iranian ports, aimed at forcing Tehran back to the negotiating table.
According to the report, the ceasefire was partly tied to reopening the Strait of Hormuz, which remains restricted. Despite tensions, markets reacted positively, with oil prices easing and stocks rising on hopes of renewed diplomacy.
