US-Iran Peace Talks Center on Unfreezing Billions in Iranian Assets
Iran is demanding the release of billions of dollars in Iranian cash held overseas since 1979. The United States is considering a partial unfreezing of these assets. These discussions are part of ceasefire talks in Islamabad between the United States and Iran regarding Iran's war with Israel. Pakistan is mediating the negotiations, with US Vice President JD Vance arriving in Islamabad on Saturday. Iranian Vice President emphasizes that a deal is likely to be reached if the US prioritizes 'America First'—a strategy prioritizing American national interests and economic self-sufficiency—over 'Israel First.' The success of the discussions relies on the US meeting Iranian objectives regarding the release of funds and the stop of combat in Lebanon.
