U.S. and Iranian delegations have arrived in Islamabad, Pakistan on Saturday for peace talks.

Led by Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, Iran's delegation also includes Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi and other senior officials. Qalibaf says Tehran has goodwill toward the negotiations but has no trust in the U.S. He says Iran is ready to reach an agreement if Washington offers what he describes as a genuine deal and respects Iran's rights.

The U.S. team, led by Vice President JD Vance, also includes U.S. President Donald Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff and the president’s son-in-law Jared Kushner. Vance says he expects a positive outcome from the talks.

Security has been tightened around the Islamabad Serena Hotel, the proposed venue for the high-stakes talks.

Before the negotiations, the Iranian delegation is expected to meet with Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif.

A two-week ceasefire between Iran and the U.S. took effect on Tuesday, but failed to resolve disputes over the Strait of Hormuz and other flash points.
