How the call settles
Settled by whether a round of US-Iran negotiations (e.g. in Islamabad) actually convenes with both delegations present by 2026-04-26.
Our reasoning
NO on the research record because No US-Iran negotiating round convened during April 20-26, 2026. The Islamabad Talks had already ended in failure April 11-12; Iran rebuffed efforts to restart, the White House put VP Vance's second Islamabad trip on hold, and on April 25 Trump announced cancellation of the envoy trip for further talks. The next sessions were the June 21 and June 28 technical talks in Switzerland.. Applied stored rule: Settled by whether a round of US-Iran negotiations (e.g. in Islamabad) actually convenes with both delegations present by 2026-04-26.

No US-Iran negotiating round convened during April 20-26, 2026.
