ISLAMABAD (AP) — Pakistan is pressing ahead with the groundwork for a second round of talks between Iran and the United States in Islamabad. A fragile ceasefire hung in the balance on Tuesday even though it remains unclear whether Tehran will send a delegation. Both sides remain dug in rhetorically with U.S. President Donald Trump warning that “lots of bombs” will “start going off” if there’s no agreement before the ceasefire deadline. And Iranian’s chief negotiator says that Tehran has “new cards on the battlefield” that haven’t yet been revealed. The two-week ceasefire is due to expire Wednesday.
