The Swiss foreign ministry confirmed the postponement, stating that preparatory work at Bürgenstock is continuing and Switzerland remains ready to facilitate future discussions. US Vice President JD Vance, who was expected to attend to discuss implementing a 14-point memorandum, will no longer be travelling to Switzerland. The proposed deal aims to end the war on all fronts and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, paving the way for 60 days of talks on Iran’s nuclear programme and sanctions. Continued fighting in Lebanon, including Israeli strikes killing 18 people and four Israeli soldiers, threatens the fragile agreement, while Donald Trump described the deal as Iran's 'unconditional surrender'.
