The positive headlines around Iran continue to mount:Witkoff and Kushner headed to Pakistan on Saturday morning, according to the White House“We hope that positive developments will come from this meeting" Leavitt saidIran reached out an asked for an in person meetingVance will be standing by in the USEveryone will be on standby to fly to Pakistan if neededAxios also reported that Witkoff and Kushner would travel "in the coming days" but the details of that report were less encouraging. It says:The diplomatic efforts haven't made any progress in recent days. The trip is an effort to break the stalemate and build momentum for a deal before Trump goes back to exploring military options.My guess is they're continuing to try to get the US to drop its blockade of Iran's ships.There is also this detail in the Axios report, which follows a report that he had stepped down earlier:A U.S. official and a source with knowledge said Ghalibaf grew frustrated with the infighting in the Iranian leadership after the previous round of talks, and even threatened to step aside. It's unclear if he's still the lead Iranian negotiator.It's interesting that this is all coming from the US side while the reporting from Iran said it would be a short stop in Pakistan for a bilateral meeting with Pakistan's leaders. Of course, you never really know what's going on but the market is certainly taking it well. The S&P 500 is up 0.7%.The White House's Leavitt is also talking and said there has been "some progress" on Iran in recent days. This article was written by Adam Button at investinglive.com.
