U.S.-Iran peace talks expected Friday in Pakistan, sources say

• President Trump announced Tuesday that the U.S. had agreed to a two-week ceasefire, during which time the sides would negotiate on a full peace deal.
• Iran's foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, later confirmed Tehran's acceptance.
• "There are discussions about in-person talks, but nothing is final until announced by the President or the White House," Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told Axios.

Zoom in: While White House envoy Steve Witkoff has led the diplomacy with Iran during the war with Vice President Vance in support, those roles could swap during the in-person negotiations. Vance is likely to lead the U.S. delegation.

• A senior U.S. official said Vance had established a rapport with Pakistani Field Marshal Asim Munir, whom Trump and Aragchi thanked along with the country's prime minister for their work on the ceasefire.
• Trump's son-in-law and adviser Jared Kushner has also been involved in the negotiations.

The latest: Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif confirmed he'd invited the parties to Islamabad on Friday.

• "We earnestly hope, that the 'Islamabad Talks' succeed in achieving sustainable peace and wish to share more good news in coming days!"
