• Vance says Iran must meaningfully reduce enrichment capacity to end war
• US is in talks with President Pezeshkian and Foreign Minister Araqchi, Vance says
• Vance said he has not decided whether to pursue a White House run

US Vice President JD Vance said in an exclusive interview with Reuters that Iran ​must make a "meaningful" reduction in its nuclear enrichment capacity to satisfy US demands and end the countries’ seven-month war, even as Washington was unsure how ‌Tehran makes decisions in negotiations.

Vance, a longtime skeptic of US involvement in foreign wars, has taken a leading role in negotiating a settlement to the conflict and brokered a provisional peace agreement in June that quickly fell apart. The war has jolted global energy markets and become a political liability for President Donald Trump and fellow Republicans ahead of November midterm elections.
