We\u2019ll see if the Iranians accept it.\u201dHis comments did not indicate what will happen after the 14-day ceasefire initially agreed to by the US, Iran and Israel, but Pakistani mediators called on the US and Iran to maintain the ceasefire.Iran\u2019s delegation, led by parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf and foreign minister Abbas Araghchi, told the Iranian state television that it had presented \u201cred lines\u201d in meetings with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, including compensation for damage caused by the US-Israeli attacks and releasing Iran\u2019s frozen assets.Iran\u2019s state-run news agency said the three-party talks began after Iranian preconditions, including a reduction in Israeli strikes on southern Lebanon, were met.In one of the first reactions from Iran, foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said the talks fell apart over a \u201cgap between our opinions over two or three important issues.\u201dHe told Iran\u2019s state TV that the Strait of Hormuz was among the topics discussed by negotiators, but he did not mention nuclear weapons.After the talks ended, Pakistan Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar said, &#8220;It is imperative that the parties continue to uphold their commitment to a ceasefire,&#8221; adding that his country will try to facilitate a new dialogue between Iran and the U.S. in the coming days.<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2026\/04\/12\/us-and-iran-end-peace-and-ceasefire-talks-in-pakistan-without-agreement&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/71\/87\/67\/1200x675_cmsv2_e7f1c741-9b15-548d-af20-98e154f1e6f2-9718767.jpg&#8221;] Moments These are the most elite travel experiences in the world Nature Queen bees survive winter by their ability to breathe underwater Top News Stories Today Latest news bulletin | April 12th, 2026 \u2013 Morning Europe News Hungary begins to vote: Orb\u00e1n and Magyar face off in historic vote Moments These are [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-1878500","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1878500","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1878500"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1878500\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1878500"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1878500"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1878500"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
