Vance on "rescue mission" in Switzerland, former US government advisor says

Vice President JD Vance is on a “rescue mission” in Switzerland where US-Iran talks are due to take place , a former US government advisor told CNN on Sunday.

“I think the vice president’s trip right now is less about this victory lap and more of a rescue mission of those talks,” said Negah Angha, a former senior advisor at the US Department of State and National Security Council.

“Merely being able to move forward with the talks, having those, those conversations will be a clear win for the next couple of days.”

She said that the 60-day deadline to hammer out a deal on Iran’s nuclear program might be too short.

“Sixty days is going to be complicated when you’re trying to decide whether or not some of these nuclear components are going to essentially be watered down in Iran,” she said.
