US Vice President J.D. Vance will travel to Pakistan for talks with US President's special envoy Steve Whitkoff and Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner, CNN journalist Elaine Treen reported.
US President Donald Trump previously said in an interview with ABC that Vance would not be able to travel to Islamabad for talks due to security concerns - the Secret Service would not be able to guarantee the vice president's safety if the preparation time before the trip was less than 24 hours.
“The situation has changed“, CNN journalist quoted an unnamed White House official in X in response to the American leader's statement.
In addition, Elaine Treen noted, the US Secret Service does not want Vance and Trump to be in the same place at the same time, so if the American leader decides to fly to Pakistan to negotiate a deal with Iran, the vice president will have to return to the United States.
