Iranian officials depart for Switzerland to hold talks with the United States while fighting continues in Lebanon, according to multiple reports. Iranian state media says a high-level Iranian negotiating team leaves on Saturday for discussions in Switzerland with U.S. counterparts. The delegation is led by chief negotiator Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf and includes Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi, along with senior officials covering security, the central bank, and oil, reflecting a broad agenda for the talks. Separately, U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance indicates he is preparing to travel for meetings connected to the negotiations. One report cites Pakistan’s position that certain meetings are expected to begin on Sunday. The outlets note that while the diplomatic track with Washington proceeds, military activity in Lebanon continues, underscoring a lack of an immediate ceasefire linked to the negotiations. The reporting is based on Iranian state media for the composition and departure of the Iranian team, and on statements attributed to U.S. and regional officials for the timing of related meetings.
