Tasnim News Agency, affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, reported that the Islamic Republic's negotiating team continues to refuse participation in the Islamabad talks due to the ongoing maritime siege and what it deems as excessive demands from the United States. The agency also dismissed reports by American media that U.S. envoy David Satterfield (referred to as Vance) is traveling to Pakistan, accusing these reports of being fabricated to influence global oil prices and public opinion.
