JD Vance says US making progress in Iran talks
  • US Vice President: ‘The ⁠fundamental question is do ‌we ‌make enough progress ‌that we satisfy ‌the President’s red line?’

WASHINGTON: US Vice President JD Vance said on Wednesday he believes progress is being made in negotiations ‌with Iran ‌to end ‌hostilities, ⁠after President Donald Trump ⁠rejected Tehran’s latest proposal as unacceptable.
“I think that we are making progress. The ⁠fundamental question is do ‌we ‌make enough progress ‌that we satisfy ‌the President’s red line?” Vance told reporters at the White House.
“And ‌the red line is very simple. ⁠He ⁠needs to feel confident that we put a number of protections in place such that Iran will never have a nuclear weapon.”
