The US-Iran ceasefire mediation has reached a deadlock; Iran refuses to meet with the US side in Islamabad.
Why does Iran believe the U.S. demands are unacceptable?
On April 3rd, local time, a reporter from the China Central Radio and Television learned from the U.S. side that a new round of mediation efforts led by regional countries such as Pakistan, aimed at facilitating a ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran, has reached a deadlock. Iran has officially informed the mediators that it is unwilling to meet with U.S. officials in Islamabad in the coming days and has stated that the U.S. demands are unacceptable.
Currently, Turkey and Egypt are still working to push the negotiation process forward, considering moving the talks to a new location such as Doha, the capital of Qatar, or Istanbul, Turkey’s largest city, and are trying to propose new plans to break the deadlock.
Earlier, Israeli officials stated that several countries are trying to coordinate a meeting between Iran’s Islamic Parliament Speaker Kalibaf and U.S. Special Envoy Wittekov, Trump’s son-in-law Kushner, and U.S. Vice President Vance in Islamabad, Pakistan.
