Although he hasn't said it directly, U.S. President Donald Trump has hinted that it is likely that in two days ' time U.S. and Iranian representatives will meet again in Islamabad, Pakistan. 

TheUS president has suggested the news in a telephone interview with the New York Post . He has recommended that journalists stay in Islamabad because "something" could happen in the next few days. "You really should stay there.

Trump has also praised the work being done by Pakistan's army chief, Asim Munir, as an intermediary. "He is doing a wonderful job," he said, and therefore did not rule out returning to the site sooner rather than later to resume negotiations. 

On behalf of the United States, Vice President JD Vance travelled to Islamabad last weekend to negotiate with Iran. After the breakdown of relations between the two countries since 1979, it was the first summit. 

But almost 20 hours of talks didn't work and they closed the first round without agreement . Trump immediately gave the US Army the order to block the Strait of Hormuz.
