What We're Tracking No sign of a U.S.-Iran breakthrough. Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi will visit Pakistan, Oman and Russia in the coming days, with a visit to Pakistan starting on April 24. However, there is no sign that he will meet with U.S. officials or restart ceasefire talks, even as the United States brings fresh firepower to the region in the form of the USS George H.W. Bush. With three aircraft carriers in the region and arms resupplied, the United States could quickly restart hostilities, but it remains unclear whether Washington is ready to resume an almost certainly unpopular military campaign, as it has signaled a desire to wait for its blockade to force Iran into concessions. Both sides are now awaiting a break in the other's domestic support, a volatile process that could see the U.S. lose patience in the coming days.
