'Iran Can Call Us Anytime': Trump After Cancelling Top Officials' Pak Trip

US President Donald Trump said that he has ordered his envoys to not travel to Pakistan for talks with Iranian officials on ending the war.

According to Fox News, Trump said that he told the envoys not to get on an "18-hour flight" while they were getting ready to leave. He said that he does not want his officials to "sit around talking about nothing".

The Republican leader said that the United States holds all the cards and that Iran "can call us anytime they want".

However, Trump said that cancelling his envoys' trip to Islamabad did not mean that the war in Iran would restart. When asked if the cancellation would mean the war would resume, he said, "No. It doesn't mean that. We haven't thought about it yet."

The president also took to Truth Social to confirm the same. "Too much time wasted on traveling, too much work!" he wrote. 

Trump also criticised the Iranian government for "infighting" and "confusion" within their leadership and claimed that even the Iranians do not know who is in charge. 

"Also, we have all the cards, they have none! If they want to talk, all they have to do is call!!!" he added.

Meanwhile, the Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said that it is yet to be seen if the United States is "truly serious" about diplomacy after his visit to Pakistan, where he met with senior officials.

In a post on X after leaving Islamabad, Araghchi said he had "shared Iran's position concerning (a) workable framework to permanently end the war", but he had "yet to see if the US is truly serious about diplomacy".

It remains unclear whether Iran and the US will resume negotiations soon. Aragchi left Pakistan, the key mediator in the negotiations between the two countries, a few hours ago, with no immediate word on possible resumption of talks.

Pakistani authorities on Saturday evening began easing restrictions following the departure of an Iranian delegation and a US decision not to send its delegation to Islamabad for potential talks, offering relief to hundreds of thousands of residents after nearly a week of near-lockdown conditions.
