Attempts at ceasefire talks between the United States and Iran fell flat after Tehran’s top diplomat left Pakistan and President Donald Trump’s envoys stayed away after he told them not to travel to Pakistan’s capital Islamabad.

The US president indicated the ball is now in Iran’s court. Iran’s official news agency says Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi is expected back in Islamabad on Sunday.

## Pakistan lifts Islamabad Red Zone lockdown after stalled US-Iran talks — 3:00 p.m.

By the Associated Press

Pakistan’s foreign minister, Ishaq Dar, said late Sunday that the government has lifted all restrictions around the high-security zone in the capital of Islamabad.

Iranian and U.S. delegations held rare face-to-face talks there earlier this month. The area had remained under lockdown for more than a week as Pakistan hoped to host a second round of talks aimed at securing a ceasefire.

Dar’s remarks signaled that there was no immediate prospect of further direct talks between the United States and Iran. Still, Pakistan’s government says it continues to mediate by conveying messages between the two sides to promote lasting stability in the region.

Get Starting Point

A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday.

In a post on X, Dar thanked residents of Islamabad and the nearby city of Rawalpindi “for their patience and cooperation.”

## Iran’s foreign minister leaves Pakistan after brief visit — 2:43 p.m.

By the Associated Press

Abbas Araghchi left for Moscow late Sunday after the brief visit to Islamabad, two Pakistani officials said. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media on the record.

Pakistan’s political and military leadership had been trying to facilitate a second round of direct talks between the United States and Iran. The effort stalled after neither Washington nor Tehran sent envoys for the proposed talks.

Araghchi remained in Islamabad for more than three hours, and the officials said indirect talks between the two sides were ongoing.

Pakistani authorities did not announce his arrival from Oman or confirm his departure, and no official explanation was given for the secrecy.There was no statement from the Foreign Ministry or the Information Ministry.

## Trump says US, Iranian officials can talk by phone — 12:10 p.m.

By the Associated Press

In an interview Sunday on Fox News Channel, Trump said he made that decision rather than send a delegation on a 17-hour flight.

“We have all the cards. If they want to talk, they can come to us, or they can call us,” Trump said, not indicating when the call would take place.

Talks appeared to fall apart on Saturday, with Tehran’s top diplomat leaving Pakistan, and Trump soon afterward saying he had told envoys not to travel to Islamabad.

Asked about NATO, Trump said he was “very, very disappointed” in the military alliance, which he has suggested the U.S. may consider leaving after member countries ignored his call to help as Iran effectively shut the the Strait of Hormuz.

“We’ve been serving them for many years, spending trillions of dollars, and when we wanted to help they were not there, so we have to remember that,” Trump said.

The war broke out after Hezbollah fired rockets at northern Israel two days after the U.S. and Israel attacked its main backer, Iran.
