Vance would remain on <em>\u201cstandby\u201d<\/em> and could still be dispatched if negotiations progress far enough to justify his involvement.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\n        <span><strong>Read more<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<figure>\n            <imgsrc=\"\" alt=\"US President Donald Trump\"><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rt.com\/news\/639021-trump-hormuz-iranian-boats-warning\/\">US to \u2018shoot and kill\u2019 Iranian mine-laying boats in Strait of Hormuz \u2013 Trump<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"1744\" data-end=\"1967\">While Tehran has insisted that no new US talks are on the agenda for this visit, AP reported that the sides could still hold indirect discussions through Pakistani mediation rather than direct face-to-face negotiations.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1969\" data-end=\"2329\">Washington indefinitely extended the ceasefire with Iran earlier this week, expecting a <em>\u201cunified\u201d<\/em> proposal from Tehran while keeping the US blockade of Iranian ports in place. The standoff around the Strait of Hormuz has rattled global markets, pushing Brent crude above $100 per barrel, while Trump has made clear that there is no firm timeline for ending the war.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\n        <span><strong>Read more<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<figure>\n            <imgsrc=\"\" alt=\"Tehran\u2019s ambassador to Moscow, Kazem Jalali\"><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rt.com\/news\/638993-iran-envoy-talks-war\/\">Iran ready for both talks and war \u2013 envoy<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"2331\" data-end=\"2627\">The US president further raised the stakes by saying he had ordered the US Navy to <em>\u201cshoot and kill\u201d<\/em> any Iranian boats\u00a0found laying mines in the waterway.
