Vice President JD Vance has written to Iranian security chief Mohsen Rezaei on President Donald Trump’s instructions in an effort to restart peace negotiations, The Wall Street Journal reported.

The initiative seeks to avert a possible resumption of U.S. attacks after next week’s congressional elections.

Framework Before a Peace Proposal

Contacts have centered on establishing the terms for negotiations. They have yet to produce a concrete peace proposal, according to the report.

Washington is pressing for nuclear concessions. Tehran wants economic relief immediately.

The competing demands leave the sequencing of any concessions at the center of efforts to reopen diplomacy.
