Vance says there is much agreement between the US and Iran, despite difficult points

Earlier, Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said on his X account that three clauses of Iran's 10-point proposal have been "blatantly and clearly violated" - including a proposed ceasefire in Lebanon.

Vance says he has seen the post and takes it as a positive. If there are only three points of disagreement, that signals broad agreement, the vice president says, the BBC reported, Gazeta Express reports.

But he ignores some of Ghalibaf's points.

“I actually wonder how good he is at understanding English,” he says. “Because there are things he said that frankly didn’t make sense in the context of the negotiations we had.”

He continued to call the Lebanon issue a "reasonable misunderstanding."

“Ceasefires are always messy,” he says, adding that they never go without some “instability.”
