US Negotiators Arrive in Pakistan for Ceasefire Talks with Iran

US negotiators arrived in Pakistan on April 11 for ceasefire talks with Iran, continuing the Islamabad summit process as both sides seek a framework to keep diplomacy alive. The talks extend VP Vance's April 10 visit to Islamabad, with negotiators working to establish parameters for the first sustained US-Iran diplomatic channel since the war began on February 28. Pakistan has positioned itself as a neutral mediator, setting a modest goal: keep dialogue open rather than finalize any comprehensive deal.
