The US President, Donald Trump, has announced that he has canceled the visit of his special envoy, Steve Witkoff, and National Security Adviser, Jared Kushner, to Pakistan, amid ongoing diplomatic efforts to end the Iran conflict. The visit was scheduled for today, with the two officials set to depart from the US for Islamabad.
In a statement, President Trump said that he had informed his team earlier that they would not be traveling to Pakistan, citing the fact that they had all the necessary cards to negotiate with Iran, but did not see the need for a 18-hour flight to discuss the issue further. The cancellation of the visit comes at a time when Pakistan, along with other nations, is actively engaged in diplomatic efforts to bring an end to the conflict in Iran.
