Looks like Trump skipped his son's wedding to stay at the White House, waiting for updates on the Pakistan Army Chief's visit to Iran. There’s been a lot of info tonight about the situation in Iran. Personally, I think the most important part is the official statement from the Pakistan Army: they believe the negotiations have made encouraging progress. The Pakistan Army Chief is essentially Pakistan’s de facto top leader and carries significant weight.
What’s notable about this visit is that he met with four key Iranian leaders: the Iranian President and Foreign Minister, who are considered representatives of the moderate faction, as well as the Iranian Parliament Speaker and Interior Minister, both of whom were once senior commanders in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. These two can somewhat represent the hardliners within the Revolutionary Guard.
In essence, the Pakistan Army Chief managed to meet representatives from both the moderate and hardline factions in Iran. The fact that Pakistan issued this statement suggests that some progress was indeed made during the talks.
