More U.S.-Iran Peace Deal Talks are in Discussion, White House says

• A second round of U.S.-Iran negotiations is under discussion but not yet officially scheduled, according to a White House official. President Trump later told the New York Post the next talks "could be happening over next two days" in Islamabad, Pakistan, after initially suggesting they would be slow and be held in Europe.
• The push for renewed talks follows a weekend of stalled negotiations in Islamabad that ended without a deal, with key sticking points over Iran's nuclear ambitions left unresolved and both sides accusing the other of shifting the goalposts.
• Vice President JD Vance, who led the U.S. delegation alongside special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, said Monday that "the ball is in the Iranian court," while top Iranian officials accused the U.S. of acting in bad faith.
• Despite the mounting tensions, hopes for a deal remain alive. Oil prices fell, and stocks rose on Tuesday morning on reports that negotiations could restart before the fragile two-week ceasefire expires on April 21.
