Top Iran diplomat traveling to Pakistan for talks on ceasefire with US

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi is traveling to Pakistan to push for renewed U.S.-Iran ceasefire negotiations, which had failed to resume. Pakistan seeks to revive stalled diplomatic efforts amid heightened tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, where Iran has attacked ships and the U.S. has enforced a blockade. Separately, the Trump administration extended the Jones Act waiver to ease energy transport, impacting oil prices.
