Vance in contact with intermediaries on Iran - Reuters

Apr 1, 2026, 15:46 GMT+1Updated: 17:04 GMT+1

US Vice President JD Vance has been in contact with intermediaries about the Iran war, including as recently as Tuesday, Reuters reported, citing a source briefed on the matter.

The source said US President Donald Trump directed Vance to privately communicate that he was open to a ceasefire if certain US demands were met, including the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.

Vance also delivered what a source described as a “stern message” in contacts with intermediaries that Trump was growing impatient and warned there would be increasing pressure on Tehran unless it agreed to a deal.
