Amid escalating tensions from the U.S. naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz and a fragile ceasefire, U.S.-Iran delegations held their first direct talks since hostilities began, meeting in Islamabad on April 10-11 with U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner alongside Vice President JD Vance facing Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi; the session ended without agreement on nuclear curbs or shipping access. President Trump signaled a second round could occur within days, potentially hosted by Pakistan again, boosting trader focus on whether key U.S. figures like Kushner or Witkoff secure in-person diplomatic engagements before April 30 amid ongoing backchannel efforts by Oman, Egypt, and Qatar to avert further military escalation.
