US Vice President J. the. Vanes sent a letter to the secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Mohsen Razai, with the aim of renewing the peace talks."
According to the Wall Street Journal, the letter was sent at the request of President Trump, as the US administration considers resuming military strikes on Iran after next week's midterm elections. The main goal of the move is to lay the foundations for future negotiations, and not to discuss the specific conditions of a peace agreement, the newspaper notes. Vance assesses whether there is enough common denominator to "convince Trump to refrain from ordering a short but intense military campaign against Iran. ".
