Vice President JD Vance said Sunday the high stakes talks between the U.S. and Iran ended without a deal after Iranian officials refused to accept American terms.
Speaking during a press conference from the Serena Hotel in Islamabad, Pakistan, Vance said Iran has "chosen not to accept our terms."
"The bad news is that we have not reached an agreement," Vance said. "And I think that's bad news for Iran much more than it's bad news for the United States of America."
"So we go back to the United States, having not come to an agreement. We've made very clear what our red lines are, what things we're willing to accommodate them on and what things we're not willing to accommodate them on," Vance added. "And we've made that as clear as we possibly could, and they have chosen not to accept our terms."
Iranian officials say the US has "excessive demands" while US remains firm they will not tolerate Iran's nuclear program and the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. The White House is expected to host meetings this week to ease tensions between Israel and Lebanon.
