CNN’s White House correspondent Alayna Treene says it is unclear when US Vice President JD Vance will leave for Pakistan to attend possible peace talks in Islamabad.

Citing sources, she adds, “The White House is planning to hold further meetings [on] Tuesday in [Washington] DC to discuss the path forward, and Vance will be a part of them.”

“A White House official told CNN that ‘additional policy meetings are taking place at the White House in which the Vice President will participate,’” Treene reports.
