US Vice President Vance postpones trip to Switzerland for Iran talks
U.S. Vice President JD Vance will not travel to Switzerland as scheduled for talks on Friday following up on the deal to end the war with Iran, according to the White House.
The signing of the accord this week was intended to end the conflict in Iran, reopen the Strait of Hormuz and begin a 60-day period for talks on wider issues, including Tehran's nuclear programme.
At the same time, the deal was to end the fighting in Lebanon, but new clashes have flared between Israeli forces and Iran-backed Hezbollah militants.
It has also appeared increasingly unlikely that a signing ceremony between the United States and Iran, originally slated for Switzerland on Friday, will take place as planned.
