Washington (USA), Oct. 29 (LaPresse) – Donald Trump has given Vice President JD Vance the green light to resume negotiations with Iran. The US president himself told reporters traveling with him. Meanwhile, The Wall Street Journal reports that Vance has contacted one of the most influential hardliners in the Iranian regime in an attempt to revive peace negotiations. The newspaper cites US officials and other sources familiar with the matter. According to the sources, Vance sent a letter to Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of Iran’s top security body, the Supreme National Security Council, and a former commander of the Revolutionary Guards. The letter, the WSJ writes, was sent at President Trump’s direction, meaning he is aware of the initiative. Vance’s goal is to determine whether Tehran and Washington can find sufficient common ground to persuade Trump not to give the final order for a rapid and intense attack on Iran in the coming weeks.
