Talks between Iran and the U.S. in Islamabad collapsed after major disagreements over nuclear policy, the Strait of Hormuz, and proposed terms seen as unacceptable by Iran. Despite early diplomatic efforts and indirect negotiations, both sides failed to align, with escalating tensions and military developments shaping the backdrop.
