President Donald Trump said United States warships are being loaded with 'the best ammunition' in preparation for renewed strikes on Iran if upcoming peace talks in Pakistan fail. His remarks came as Vice President JD Vance traveled to Islamabad alongside special envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to negotiate a final agreement following a two week ceasefire.

Trump said the outcome of the talks would be known within 24 hours and warned that if no deal is reached, the military is prepared to act decisively. He expressed skepticism about Iran’s intentions, accusing its leaders of sending mixed messages about their nuclear activities and commitment to negotiations.

Iran is expected to be represented by Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and parliamentary speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf. Discussions are set to address demands that Iran surrender a large stockpile of enriched uranium, reopen the Strait of Hormuz to international shipping, curb support for regional armed groups, limit its ballistic missile program, and seek relief from United States sanctions.
