Conflicting reports emerge about whether Iranian and American delegations will attend the next round of US-Iran talks in Islamabad.
Trump specified that Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner will be the US envoys attending the talks in Islamabad, and confirmed Vice President JD Vance will not be part of the delegation.
UN Ambassador Mike Waltz and Energy Secretary Chris Wright have publicly stated that VP Vance will lead the talks, directly contradicting President Trump's statement that Vance will not go.
Energy Secretary Chris Wright has characterized President Trump's threats to destroy Iranian civilian infrastructure as 'maximum leverage' in negotiations, dismissing war crime allegations.
Trump provided a specific timeline, stating his representatives are leaving soon and that the talks are expected Monday evening.
The message confirms the delegation includes Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, and specifies the talks are on Monday before the ceasefire ends.
Trump specified the negotiating team will arrive in Islamabad 'tomorrow night' and reiterated his threat to destroy Iranian infrastructure, adding the claim that Iran is losing $500 million daily due to the Strait of Hormuz closure.
Trump has now explicitly stated there will be 'another round of negotiations' in Islamabad, reiterating his demand for Iran to stop its 'killing machine'.
CNN provides new details on the Iranian delegation's travel schedule and composition, and outlines a potential path to a Trump-Pezeshkian summit and joint statement in Islamabad.
Fars News adds that Iran has not reached a final decision on attending, a government source denied CNN's claim of a potential Pezeshkian trip to Islamabad, and stated that if Vance does not attend, Iran will not include a senior figure like Ghalibaf.
The New York Post reports President Trump named Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner as attendees, while UN Ambassador Waltz says Vance will lead the team.
Fars News reports Iranian sources say Tehran has not reached a final decision on attending the next round, with one source stating Iran will not participate while the US naval blockade continues. The report also indicates that if Vance does not attend, senior Iranian figures like Ghalibaf would not be included in Iran's negotiating team.
