According to The New York Post, U.S. President Trump said in a phone interview on Tuesday that the United States will not return to Pakistan for any future peace negotiations with Iran. Previously, the U.S. delegation concluded marathon-style talks over the weekend but failed to reach an agreement. "Things are happening, but a bit slowly," he said, "We might choose another location, we already have a backup plan." When asked if Turkey was being considered, Trump said, "No, pick a more central place. Maybe Europe." According to the report, after a brief exchange with reporters, Trump called back to add, "You should stay there; something might happen in the next two days. We are more inclined to go to Pakistan because that Marshal is doing an excellent job." He was referring to Pakistani Army Marshal Asim Munir. During the India-Pakistan war last year, Trump established contact with Munir, and a peace agreement was reached in just four days under U.S. mediation. "He's great, so we're more likely to go back," Trump said, "Why go to a country unrelated to this?"
