Per a VP spox, the Vice President will now return to the US from Hungary.

As you may have seen, Karoline Leavitt just announced that the VP will be leading a negotiating team, including Special Envoy Witkoff and Jared Kushner, to Islamabad for talks which will begin on Saturday.

Pool was loaded into vans shortly after 1900 to head to Budapest’s Liszt Ferenc airport. We were not part of the motorcade and have not seen the Vice President.

We do not have an ETA for departure but will update as we learn more.
