U.S.-Iran Negotiations Completely Fall Apart After 21 Hours! Iran Hardline Refuses to Abandon Nuclear Weapons, Vance Walks Out After a 4-Minute Press Conference 🫣

On April 12, the highly anticipated U.S.-Iran talks announced they had broken down, lasting only 21 hours from start to finish. The core sticking point was Iran’s refusal to promise to fully abandon its nuclear weapons program, and its stance was unusually hardline.
At the subsequent press conference, U.S. Secretary of State Vance appeared clearly visibly low-spirited, directly announcing the talks had failed, and specifically clarifying that this had nothing to do with Pakistan as the host, praising the host for its efforts.
The atmosphere in the press conference room was stifling. Vance only made a brief statement and answered 3 questions before ending and walking out in under 4 minutes. Even as reporters behind him pressed him with follow-up questions, he ignored them and pushed the door open to leave directly.
This talks breakdown instantly made the regional situation more complex and hard to predict. The two-week ceasefire agreement that began on April 7 was once again in jeopardy, and risks to the Strait of Hormuz and global energy supplies warmed up again.
It is reported that during the negotiations, Vance communicated with Trump throughout, and the latter had previously said that regardless of the outcome of the talks, the U.S. would have the advantage. This game has only just moved into the next round.
