Vance delays expected Iran talks departure

Vice President JD Vance, expected to lead a US delegation at upcoming negotiations with Iran in Pakistan, was still in Washington midday Tuesday to participate in meetings, the White House said.

"Additional policy meetings are taking place at the White House in which the vice president will participate," an official said in a brief statement sent to AFP shortly after 1700 GMT.

The official did not provide further details. But Vance's departure -- which has been the subject of contradictory announcements -- was scheduled for Tuesday morning, according to recent reports.
