The US has approved and awarded a USD $ 488Mn for long-term engineering and technical support of F-16 Fighting Falcon radar systems, with Pakistan among the countries covered by the deal — This, despite NewDelhi asking Washington DC to not do so — Someone check on Pakistan’s irrelevant eastern neighbours, if they’re doing ok after this — The 6-0 celebration day is also approaching.

Trump reportedly asked his team after meeting Asim Munir:
“Who are these Pakistanis? A puny little country that beat the hell out of the Indians and has the atom bomb too?”
That question - from the most powerful man in the world - is Pakistan’s entire repositioning story in one sentence.

Let me piece together key developments of the past few hours to understand where things stand.
If all went as per plan, the US & Iranian negotiators would have been in a huddle today (Wednesday), seeking to thrash out a potential deal.
Pakistan was confident as it had done a lot of spadework through backchannels since the first round ended without a breakthrough.
Where did things go wrong?
Until yesterday afternoon, the plan was already finalized. Steve Witkoff & Jared Kushner were set to fly first from Miami. Vice President JD Vance's plane was ready to take off.
The press corps accompanying Vance were instructed to be ready for departure around 9:00 am Washington time (6:00 pm PST).
Not that the plan was final but multiple sources said security assets & details put on the ground in Islamanad were typical accompanying the US President's movement. That meant the US was ready if Trump decided to fly in.
But then things began to fray. The US side, which shared some new proposals via Pakistan with Iran, wanted a clear response from Tehran before Vance left for Islamabad.
The US wanted the second round to show some headway, if not reach a final settlement.
Initially, Iran was inclined to give consent. That was the reason Pakistan had put in place all the security arrangements. The US advance teams had landed.
But as the stage was set for talks, Iran, first through state media, and then officially, started backtracking.
One assessment is that the hardliners within the setup were not happy with the potential deal. They saw it as a document of surrender.
The Iranian precondition for a US naval blockade was not the real sticking point. What I have been hearing is that the US was willing to lift the blockade during talks as a confidence-building measure.
Now, what happens next?
The extension in the ceasefire is a relief, and at least there won't be an immediate escalation.
Messages have still been exchanged. Efforts are on to salvage the last-minute deal.
The problem, however, is the slow communication channels between the Iran Supreme Leader and the negotiating team.
It is said the Iran Supreme Leader's only contact person is Ghalibaf, and messages have been exchanged through couriers. Hence, there is no immediate response from Tehran to the ceasefire extension.
It is not over until it is over!
Side note: Some of the people I saw on my timeline trying to provoke me, let me tell them I am not supposed to say what and when. I am not in the business of minute-by-minute updates or relying on tickers. I work at my own pace.

RT @YousufNazar: Pakistan has a long standing strategic relationship with China. It also had episodic partnerships with the United States.…

To my understanding, by late evening, both US and Iran delegations would have departed their capitals to be en route to Islamabad to hold the second round of in person talks as part of the Islamabad process. #IslamabadTalks

The core problem behind the lack of an agreement is exactly what I have been pointing out:
The U.S. is negotiating as if the war did not fundamentally change the equation
Iran is negotiating as if the war has shifted the balance in its favour
That gap is structural.
And this is why talks are stuck.
How do you reconcile two completely different versions of reality?
You don’t.
One side has to concede more than the other. Iran is more close to reality.

Both sides always do posturing before the negotiations. Obviously blockade is an issue and should be resolved before the second round start. But hopefully both Iranians and US delegations will attend the second round in Islamabad mediated by Pakistan.

A statement knock by Babar Azam 100 off just 52 balls against Quetta Gladiators 🔥
He dominated the spinners, played high risk shots with complete authority, and looked fearless throughout. This is a Babar without mental blocks, confident, aggressive, and in control.
Credit to Ottis Gibson as well for his mentorship. The impact is clearly visible in this PSL 💯
