The United States has a strong advantage in the ongoing Middle East negotiations, according to Vice President JD Vance. In an exclusive interview, Vance highlighted the achievements of the Trump administration in Iran.

“We have all the cards in the negotiation,” Vance stated on “The Ingraham Angle.” He emphasized that the primary objective of preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons has been accomplished. Vance asserted, “We obviously want it to be successful, but even if it’s not successful, we’ve accomplished the core mission.”

During a press conference in Kiryat Gat, Israel, Vance expressed the dual benefits of the negotiations for the U.S. and the Middle East. “In other words, it’s a win-win outcome for the American people,” he said.

Successful negotiations, as Vance explained, would transform Iran, removing nuclear ambitions and cutting off support to proxies in the region. This transformation would potentially reintegrate Iran into the global economy. “That’s a great outcome for the American people. It’s a greater outcome for the whole region,” he stated.

“But if the Iranians don’t behave, if they don’t make needed concessions, their nuclear program and military remain dismantled, leaving the U.S. in a stronger position,” Vance commented during a news conference in Islamabad, Pakistan, where he met with representatives from Pakistan and Iran.

Meanwhile, U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have arrived in Qatar for discussions. Yet, reports indicate no high-level meetings are planned between the U.S. and Iran. Qatari Foreign Ministry spokesman Majed Al-Ansari mentioned no direct meetings are currently scheduled. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt shared on “Fox & Friends” that Iran sought talks, aligning with remarks by President Donald Trump and his administration.
