ISLAMABAD, April 24 (Reuters) - Peace talks ⁠between Iran and the ‌United States could resume in Pakistan, where Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi was ​expected to arrive on ⁠Friday night, ⁠three Pakistani sources said.

Two of the ⁠sources, ‌from the Pakistani government, said a U.S. ⁠logistics and security team was already ​in ‌place for potential talks.

There was no ⁠immediate ​response from Washington or Tehran to the report.

The last round ⁠of peace talks had ​been expected on Tuesday but never took place, with Iran saying ⁠it was not yet ready to commit to attending and a U.S. delegation led by ​Vice President JD ⁠Vance never leaving Washington.
