Iran live updates: Vance expected to travel to Pakistan on Tuesday

As the Iran conflict drags on, President Donald Trump insists that he is not facing any time constraints to secure a deal, pushing back on reports that say he is under "pressure."

"I am under no pressure whatsoever, although, it will all happen, relatively quickly! Time is not my adversary," Trump wrote on social media.

The president insisted that he is ahead of schedule militarily.

"They like to say that I promised 6 weeks to defeat Iran, and actually, from the Military standpoint, it was far faster than that, but I'm not going to let them rush the United States into making a Deal that is not as good as it could have been," Trump wrote.

Vice President JD Vance is expected to leave for Pakistan on Tuesday for the next round of peace talks with Iran, according to two U.S. officials familiar with the plans. The sources cautioned that the situation is fluid and plans could change.

The State Department will host a second round of talks between Israel and Lebanon on Thursday, according to a State Department spokesperson.

"The United States welcomes the productive engagement that began on April 14," the spokesperson said. "We will continue to facilitate direct, good-faith discussions between the two governments."

In an interview with Bloomberg on Monday, President Donald Trump said that it is "highly unlikely" that he extends the ceasefire if a deal is not reached before the deadline, which the president said is Wednesday evening ET.

The president also doubled down on his blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, saying, "I'm not opening it up."

"They want me to open it. The Iranians desperately want it opened. I'm not opening it until a deal is signed," Trump said, according to Bloomberg.
