“Iran is not currently planning to attend the next round of talks with the US, which has announced that it would send a team of negotiators to Pakistan on Monday, Iranian state television reported on Sunday.”

“Iran is not planning to participate in new peace talks with the United States, its state news agency reported on Sunday, hours after US President Donald Trump had said he was sending envoys to Pakistan for talks and would strike Iran unless it accepted his terms.”

“"Iran stated that its absence from the second round of talks stems from what it called Washington's excessive demands, unrealistic expectations, constant shifts in stance, repeated contradictions, and the ongoing naval blockade, which it considers a breach of the ceasefire," Iran's official IRNA news agency wrote.”

“Trump said the US military had taken control of an Iranian-flagged cargo ship by blowing a hole in its engine room.”

“The US has kept a blockade of Iranian ports in place, while Iran has lifted and then reimposed its own blockade of marine traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, which before the war began almost two months ago handled roughly one-fifth of the world's oil supply.”

“Iran's announcement that it would walk away from negotiations came after Trump said his envoys would arrive in Islamabad on Monday evening, one day before a two-week ceasefire ends.”

“A White House official had said the US delegation would be headed by Vice President JD Vance, who led the war's first peace talks a week ago, and also include Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner.”

“Trump had separately told ABC News and MS Now that Vance would not go.”
