U.S. and Iran launch direct negotiations in Switzerland Vice President J.D. Vance and other U.S. negotiators met with their Iranian counterparts at the Bürgenstock ski resort in Switzerland on Sunday for the first round of talks over a deal to end the war, according to a diplomat with knowledge of the talks. Why it matters: The Lake Lucerne Summit is the first round of direct talks between the U.S. and Iran since the Islamabad summit last April. Its supposed to launch 60 days of nuclear negotiations with the aim of limiting Irans nuclear program.The talks took place despite Iran claiming on Saturday that it was shutting down the Strait of Hormuz in response to Israeli ceasefire violations in Lebanon. Given that backdrop, things could break down at any time."We already made progress in the last several hours, and I expect we will make additional progress in the hours to come," Vance told reporters in Bürgenstock on Sunday. Driving the news: Vance and White House envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner met on Sunday morning with the Prime Ministers of Pakistan and Qatar and Pakistans top general, who is mediating talks between the U.S. and Iran. Shortly after, the Iranian delegation — headed by Speaker of Parliament Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi — held a similar meeting with the mediators. Iranian state media reported that after the mediator meetings, the U.S. and Iranian delegations held a trilateral meeting with the Qataris, a diplomat with knowledge of the talks confirmed to Axios. What they are saying: Speaking to reporters before the trilateral meeting, Vance said the U.S. isnt just working toward opening the Strait of Hormuz or ending Irans nuclear program, but changing its relationship with the nation. "The question is — can we turn over a new leaf? Can we change relations in the Middle East permanently, or do we go back to doing things the old way, which is not our preference but is certainly something that can happen," he said.Vance called the meeting "historic" due to the high level of direct engagement between Iranian and American leadership. Irans Araghchi was in the room as U.S. negotiators and the Pakistani and Qatari prime ministers spoke to the press Sunday, but he didnt stand with Vance for a photo op or join in statements to reporters.The Iranian state media quoted a source in the Iranian delegation claiming the Iranians rejected a U.S. request for a joint photo-op and public handshake during the talks.The other side: An Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson told Iranian state media on Sunday that the talks will focus on the ceasefire in Lebanon, the waivers the U.S. committed to issue in order to allow Iran to sell oil and the issue of Irans frozen funds. Between the lines: The U.S. would like the first round of talks to end with an Iranian invitation for UN inspectors to visit its nuclear sites, which were bombed by the U.S. and Israel, two regional sources with direct knowledge said. The last such visit took place in June 2025.In return, the U.S. is willing to give Iran access to some of its frozen funds — starting with a $6 billion account in Qatar. The Iranians would be able to use those funds to buy humanitarian goods, the sources said. What to watch: As talks were underway in Switzerland, President Trump threatened to attack Iran if the nation doesnt restrain Hezbollah. "Iran must immediately stop their highly paid PROXIES in Lebanon from causing trouble. If they dont, well hit Iran very hard again, just like we did last week, only harder!!!", Trump wrote on Truth Social.Trumps comments follow Israel and Hezbollah saying they were recommitted to a ceasefire agreement after a similar effort broke down within hours on Friday.
