After marathon negotiations between the U.S. and Iran failed this weekend, President Trump ordered the Navy to blockade Iranian ports starting this morning.
Wired and live host Cabot Phillips is here with the latest. So Cabot, we're going to talk about the blockade. But first, how did the negotiations go this past weekend?
Yeah, on Saturday, Vice President Vance arrived in Pakistan for face-to-face talks with Iran, flanked by special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. Chief negotiator for the Iranians was Mohammad Bagar Ghalibaf, the country's Speaker of Parliament, whom some in Washington reportedly view as the most palatable option possible. among Iran's current crop of leaders. Now, just at the outset, these talks were, on their face, historic. This was the highest level meeting between the U.S. and Iranian regime since the 1979 Islamic Revolution. But ultimately, after 21 hours of talks, Vice President Vance emerged just before dawn with the news that a deal had not been reached. We've made very clear what our red lines are, what things we're willing to accommodate them on, and what things we're not willing to accommodate them on.
And they have chosen not to accept our terms.
And what exactly are the red lines there?
Well, we're hoping to get more details from the White House in the coming hours on that front. But on Sunday, administration officials did tell The Daily Wire that their red lines are as follows. Freezing uranium enrichment in Iran, removing all existing enriched uranium from the country, dismantling uranium enrichment facilities.
