Vance is expected to lead the US-Iran peace talks; his anti-war stance may help break the diplomatic ice.

CoinFeed reported on March 27 that, according to Axios, US Vice President Vance is preparing to undertake the most important task of his career: leading US efforts to end the war, a war he has held reservations about from the outset. Vance has spoken with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu multiple times and has been involved in indirect communications with the Iranians. He is expected to become the US chief negotiator in potential peace talks. According to US and Israeli sources, Vance is deeply skeptical of Israel's pre-war optimistic assessment of the war's trajectory, and now anticipates the war will continue for several more weeks. Vance's advisors believe that some within Israel are trying to sideline the vice president, possibly because they perceive him as not tough enough. Israeli officials have denied this.
