Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif announced that delegations from the United States and Iran are expected to arrive in Pakistan on Friday for talks. However, conflicting reports have emerged about who will participate in the meeting.

According to two unnamed Pakistani sources cited by Reuters, US Vice President J.D. Vance will lead the American delegation, which is scheduled to meet in Islamabad with Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. Meanwhile, US media outlets quoted President Donald Trump as saying that direct talks with Iran would take place “very soon,” though security concerns might prevent Vance from attending.

The meeting, if confirmed, would mark a rare diplomatic engagement between Washington and Tehran, with Pakistan serving as the host venue. Details about the agenda and participants remain uncertain.
