It follows a day when US President Trump said his negotiators were likely to resume talks in Islamabad Pakistan, while referring to Munir as a “fantastic” person who is doing “great job” to resolve the conflict between US-Iran.

Notably, Iran also confirmed having talks with US talking via Pakistan after a first round of talks collapsed at the weekend in the Pakistani capital, Islamabad.

Meanwhile, a fragile two-week ceasefire remains in place between the US and Iran and is set to expire on April 22.
