U.S. Vice President Vance met with Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in Switzerland to discuss a deal to end the Middle East conflict. The talks come amid heightened tensions, with President Trump threatening further attacks on Iran if it doesn’t stop its proxies in Lebanon. Iran has closed the Strait of Hormuz in response to Israeli strikes on Hezbollah, claiming the U.S. failed to control Israel. Despite a ceasefire, fighting continues between Israel and Hezbollah. The discussions also cover Iran’s nuclear program, with Iran insisting on its right to enrich uranium. Vance remains optimistic about the progress of the talks, despite the challenges.
