We&#8217;ve made very clear what our red lines are, what things we&#8217;re willing to accommodate them on and what things we&#8217;re not willing to accommodate them on,&#8221; Vance added. &#8220;And we&#8217;ve made that as clear as we possibly could, and they have chosen not to accept our terms.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Fox News Digital\u2019s Preston Mizell asked Vance if he had been in contact with President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Donald Trump<\/a> during the talks, and the vice president said he had been &#8220;consistently.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know how many times we talked to him \u2014 a half dozen times, a dozen times over the past 21 hours,&#8221; Vance said, adding that the U.S. team was also communicating with other members of the Trump administration, including Secretary of State <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/marco-rubio\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marco Rubio<\/a> and Secretary of War <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/pete-hegseth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pete Hegseth<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/gen-jack-keane-skeptical-iran-ceasefire-hold-warns-tehran-delay-obfuscate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>GEN JACK KEANE &#8216;SKEPTICAL&#8217; THAT IRAN CEASEFIRE WILL HOLD, WARNS TEHRAN WILL &#8216;DELAY AND OBFUSCATE&#8217;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So, look, we were constantly in communication with the team because we were negotiating in good faith,&#8221; Vance said. &#8220;And we leave here with a very simple proposal, a method of understanding that is our final and best offer.
