BREAKING: JD Vance has sent a direct letter to Iran’s top security chief, Mohsen Rezaei, at Donald Trump’s direction, requesting a revival of peace talks in a last-ditch effort to avert a renewed U.S. military campaign against Iran and a massive Iranian retaliation, per The WSJ. The letter reportedly lays out peace proposals to test whether Washington and Tehran have enough common ground to convince Trump to hold off on a short, intense attack in the coming weeks as U.S. officials believe engaging Iran’s hardliners directly could produce a better diplomatic outcome than dealing with the negotiators involved in previous failed talks. It comes as the U.S. has warned Gulf allies to prepare for a potential intense post-midterm campaign. However, Iran is very likely to reject the overture, as Tehran maintains it will not negotiate until the U.S. lifts its naval blockade and meets its conditions.
