On April 17, trust between the U.S. and Iran got wrecked back in February when nuclear talks collapsed after a joint U.S. Israel operation. Now, both sides are teaming up with Pakistan to strike a deal and stop the fighting, with confidence building steps at the center. The Vice President just joined the U.S. negotiation squad, and his doubts about endless foreign wars might push things forward. In the last 12 hours, they've checked off big items like a ceasefire in Lebanon, reopening the Strait of Hormuz and starting to rebuild trust. Oil prices dropped 10 percent right after the straight news, easing some global worries. French President Emmanuel Macron called it a step in the right direction, but crews are still nervous about minds in the waters and safe passage. Hezbollah demands full Israeli withdrawal from southern Lebanon, where troops are holding ground and keeping folks away. President Trump says the U.S. naval blockade on Iran stays until a full deal locks in. The biggest hurdle left is Iran's nuclear program and how to watch it going forward.

With real progress today, the U.S. President might head to Pakistan this weekend for round two, bringing that tough issue closer to the table.
