Trump discusses team involvement in Iran negotiations including Vance and Rubio
President Trump told reporters that Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio are involved in ongoing negotiations with Iran, along with other officials including Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff. Media reports had claimed Iranian officials prefer negotiating with Vance due to his perceived anti-war stance. The White House pushed back on these reports, calling them false and part of a foreign propaganda campaign.
