JERUSALEM, Israel – Despite conflicting and sometimes contradictory messages, U.S. and Iranian negotiators have completed their first round of talks in Switzerland, as President Trump warned that the threat of force by the U.S. against Iran remains on the table.
Vice President JD Vance said on Sunday that the opportunity has arisen to “turn over a new leaf” between Iran and the U.S.
“Never before has the Iranian and American leadership met at such a high level,” he stated. “What the president has asked us to do is turn over a new leaf to transform our relationship with the people of Iran and to extend an outstretched hand that says to the people of Iran that if your leadership is willing to give up being a driver of regional instability.”
