The US leaves Islamabad “without an agreement” and marks the Iranian renunciation of nuclear weapons as the main “red line”

The American vice president, JD Vance, assured this Sunday that they have not reached an agreement with Iran in the peace negotiations in Islamabad, despite having spent 21 hours trying to reach a consensus, although he leaves the Pakistani capital with a “last” offer, that of a “method of understanding.”

“We’ve had several substantive conversations with the Iranians. That’s the good news. The bad news is that we haven’t reached an agreement. And I think that’s much worse for Iran than it is for the United States. So we’re back to the same thing: the United States has not reached an agreement, we’ve made our red lines very clear, where we’re willing to compromise and where we’re not, and we’ve made it as clear as possible, but they’ve chosen not to accept our terms,” ​​Vance said in a media appearance.

He indicated that they are leaving Islamabad with a “very simple proposal,” which is “a method of understanding,” which he called their “best and last offer. We will see if the Iranians accept it,” without mentioning anything about the current two-week truce.

Vance did not want to go into the details of the negotiations, because he does not want to “negotiate this in public after having negotiated for 21 hours in private,” but he noted that the main obstacle has been that Iran has not made a commitment not to seek a nuclear weapon in the long term.

“The fact is that we need to see a firm commitment that they will not seek a nuclear weapon, nor the tools that would allow them to obtain it quickly. That is the main objective of the president of the United States, and that is what we have tried to achieve through these negotiations,” said the vice president of this direct contact, the highest level since 47 years ago when relations were broken by the Islamic revolution of 1979.

But he raised a question: “Do we see a commitment of will on the part of the Iranians not to develop a nuclear weapon, not just now, not just two years from now, but in the long term? We haven’t seen it yet.”
