Tehran. AFP. An Iranian delegation, headed by Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, arrived in Pakistan ahead of scheduled talks with America on Saturday, just hours after US Vice President JD Vance traveled to Islamabad to lead his country's delegation in the talks. According to Iranian media, the Iranian delegation includes Foreign Minister Abbas Arachi, as well as the Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, the head of the central bank, and many members of parliament. Vance expressed his hope for a 'positive' outcome in the upcoming talks with Iran as he headed to Islamabad on Friday. Vance told reporters before his plane took off from Andrews Air Force Base near the US capital Washington: 'We will try to engage in positive negotiations.' He added: 'If the Iranians are ready to negotiate in good faith, we are certainly ready to extend a hand. If they try to play games with us, they will find that the negotiating team will not welcome that.'
