News India Live, Digital Desk: Amidst the ongoing huge tension in the Middle East, a news has come to light which has created a stir in diplomatic circles across the world. US President Donald Trump himself has taken command to end the ongoing standoff with Iran. Quoting sources, it is reported that within the last 21 hours, a record 12 conversations have taken place on the ‘hotline’ between Trump and the Iranian leadership. After this marathon discussion, speculations are being made whether Iran is finally ready to bow down or is this the calm before a big storm?
Trump’s direct talks: Diplomacy or warning?
Sources close to the White House say that this time President Trump has chosen the path of direct communication instead of any mediator. The phone ringing 12 times within 21 hours indicates that the matter is very serious. The main objective of this ‘hotline diplomacy’ of Trump is to bring Iran to the table for a final agreement on the issue of nuclear program and regional instability. However, it is not yet clear what Iran’s stance has been in these talks, but such frequent contacts point towards some major agreement.
Stirring in Tehran: Will Iran agree?
On the other hand, there is intense excitement within Iran regarding this high-profile conversation. The stringent economic sanctions imposed on Iran have broken the back of Iran, so this direct dialogue with Trump can open the way for a ‘deal’. Experts believe that Trump is keeping the option of dialogue open along with his old ‘Maximum Pressure’ strategy. If Iran capitulates, it would be Trump’s biggest foreign policy victory yet.
The world’s eyes are on: hope for peace or new tension?
Since this news came out, the heartbeats of Israel and Gulf countries have increased. If there is any secret agreement between America and Iran, then the equations of the Middle East will completely change. At the same time, some experts in diplomacy are also considering this as Trump’s way of creating psychological pressure. The question remains, will the 12 calls made in 21 hours draft a peace treaty or will the tension take a more dangerous form if the talks fail? At present, the whole world is waiting with bated breath for the next official announcement.
