📍| Our sources close to officials aware of the process in Islamabad have confirmed that all top Iranian officials not only presented their points but remained structured and firm during the discussions, which at times escalated into verbal confrontations.

After the first round, it was confirmed to both Iranian and Pakistani presence that the Americans had not come for negotiations, but for something else entirely. They were largely shifting goalposts, repeatedly raising issues related to israeli positions in Lebanon and were repeating Trump's dream for Hormuz, which were not only rejected by the Iranians but firmly rebuffed.

It was clear that the Americans were there to study and understand Iran’s plans, procedures, and intentions, while the Iranians were doing the same in return. The Iranian delegation was described as sharp in debate and effective in presenting facts, clearly not giving an inch.

The talks eventually reached a point where it was clear that nothing substantial would materialize; however, a third round was still organized and concluded with what Vance announced before he fled. The Iranian side did not lose or concede any ground during the talks, leaving no room for the Americans to run with propaganda or claim a win.

The technical teams remain cautious and have not provided further details due to hostile media coverage, which further complicated matters and disrupted psychological operations. Still, the Iranian side kept its cards close to its chest, playing a long game, while the Americans appeared to be testing the waters. The overall situation also came as a shock to the Pakistani counterparts.
