US-Iran negotiations end in Switzerland, technical talks to continue

Negotiators expected to work through the night after high-level US-Iran talks on their interim deal to end the war had a tense start Sunday in Switzerland, when Tehran took offence at US President Donald Trump's threat to attack and his warning that Iran's president should watch what he says. The comments from afar on social media and to news outlets complicated efforts by Vice President J D Vance and mediators Pakistan and Qatar to keep Iran engaged in discussions meant to address thorny issues like Tehran's nuclear programme, the Strait of Hormuz and the unfreezing of billions of dollars in Iranian assets. Before anything, however, Iran wants to discuss Lebanon, where Israel's military has been fighting the Iranian-backed Hezbollah militant group, since the deal halts conflict on all fronts. "Iran must immediately stop their highly paid PROXIES in Lebanon from causing trouble," Trump said on social media. "If they don't, we'll hit Iran very hard again, just like we did last week

Pak PM Sharif, Army Chief Munir leave for Switzerland for US-Iran talks

Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and its Army Chief Asim Munir left for Switzerland early Sunday to participate in the technical-level talks between the US and Iran. As a follow-up to the signing of the Islamabad MoU, technical-level talks will be held in Burgenstock, Switzerland, on Sunday, according to the prime minister's office. "The prime minister, along with a high-level delegation, has departed from Islamabad for Switzerland," the PMO said in its statement issued after midnight.
