During the Easter lunch held at the White House, US President Donald Trump made an unexpected statement, commenting on JD Vance's role in the negotiations to end the Iran war.
"If this doesn't work out, I blame JD Vance," said Trump. These words caused laughter among the event participants. The event was also attended by high-ranking officials such as the Vice President, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. Trump added, "If successful, I will take all the credit."
This statement clearly highlighted Vance's current responsibility. He is leading the US delegation negotiating with Iran in Pakistan. This is considered one of his most complex tasks as Vice President.
It is noted that Vance's diplomatic mission in Islamabad is quite complex, as he must reach an agreement between distrustful parties following six weeks of military operations. This conflict has escalated the situation in the Middle East and also impacted the global economy.
According to sources, US allies are closely monitoring Vance's activities. One European official emphasized the need for him to show clear results in this process, stating, "otherwise, he could be politically weakened."
