US Vice President JD Vance touched down at Emmen Air Base in Switzerland early Sunday morning for what he described as likely a couple of days of peace talks with Iranian officials. He arrived with his wife at 5:59 a.m. local time, according to a vice presidential spokesperson.
What’s on the table in Switzerland
The Vance-Iran discussions are part of a broader diplomatic push by the Trump administration that includes an interim framework agreement with a 60-day negotiation window. Steve Witkoff has been serving as envoy in the lead-up to these talks, helping to lay the groundwork for what both sides have framed as a potential turning point.
