U.S. Vice President JD Vance said negotiations between the United States and Iran are underway in Switzerland, with U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner participating in the talks.

Axar.az reports, citing CNN, Vance said he expects to travel to Switzerland in the coming days and confirmed that the discussions are progressing.

“I expect that I will leave sometime the next couple of days, but you know it’s always a delicate coordination dance, and the diplomatic protocols,” Vance said.

He added that Witkoff and Kushner were already in Switzerland working on the negotiations.

“Jared and Steve have been on the ground now for a few hours dealing with some of the technical elements of this negotiation… My understanding talking to Jared and Steve this morning is things are going well,” Vance said.

Vance also said there was no indication that Iran was preparing to close the Strait of Hormuz.

“We’re not seeing any evidence that the Iranians are closing down the Strait of Hormuz,” he said.
