Update on US withdrawal conditions and peace proposal
US President Donald Trump has given a big statement saying that the ongoing military operation against Iran may end in the next two to three weeks. Trump made it clear that America will soon withdraw its forces but for this he has set a big condition. According to Trump, Iran will have to completely eliminate its ability to acquire nuclear weapons so that it cannot become a threat in the future. He said that Iran has no other option but to compromise.
On the other hand, efforts have also started at the international level to stop this war. China and Pakistan have jointly presented a five-point peace proposal in which both sides have been appealed to immediately stop the war and start talks. Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said that he has received messages through the American envoy but talks have not officially started yet. This situation remains very worrying for the expatriates living in Gulf countries because it has a direct impact on flights and regional security.
