Vance, who led the U.S. delegation at the negotiations in Islamabad, said the Iranian side did not accept Washington\u2019s terms for ending the war even as the U.S. presented its \u201cfinal and best offer\u201d. He indicated that Tehran\u2019s reluctance to abandon its nuclear programme was one of the key sticking points.<\/p>\n Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, the head of the Iranian team, said it is for the U.S. to decide whether it can \u201cearn our trust or not\u201d.<\/p>\n The Iranian Foreign Ministry, without elaborating, said the U.S. side resorted to \u201cexcessive\u201d and \u201cillegal demands\u201d The failure to reach an agreement has dimmed the prospect of reopening the Strait of Hormuz to stabilize the global energy market. It is unclear whether the U.S. will resume military operations against Iran. \t<\/p>\n \t<\/a> \t<\/a> \t<\/a> \t<\/a> \t<\/a> \t<\/a> <\/a> \t\t\t \t<\/a><\/p>\n \t
