Foreign policy experts are raising doubts about the Trump administration's ability to secure a deal with Iran, with some assigning top negotiators Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff what one former U.S. official called "an F in diplomacy," according to a new sprawling report from TIME.

The criticism comes after high-level negotiations in Islamabad ended without an agreement, despite more than 20 hours of discussions between U.S. and Iranian officials. The talks, led by Vice President JD Vance and supported by Kushner and Witkoff, marked the most direct engagement between the two countries in decades but failed to bridge key differences over Iran's nuclear program and regional demands.
