JD Vance departs for Switzerland as White House looks to get talks with Iran back on track

TYRE, Lebanon (AP) — U.S. Vice President JD Vance left for Switzerland on Saturday as the White House looks to get negotiations with Iran back on track.

Vance is expected to meet on Sunday with Iran's parliamentary Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and central bank and oil officials, as well as mediators from Pakistan and Qatar dispatched to Switzerland for the talks.

The technical talks are aimed at adding key details to the preliminary accord to halt the nearly four-month war between U.S. and Iran signed earlier this week by U.S. President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian.
