JD Vance may be considering direct talks with a senior Iranian security official, Bloomberg News reports in a Short whose headline sends a different message about his diplomatic role.
The narration cites The Wall Street Journal as reporting that President Donald Trump empowered the vice president to negotiate, while stressing that plans for a meeting remain preliminary. Archival footage shows Trump and Vance walking together.
