Middle East War: 48 hour ultimatum and reversal in 36 hours, how confused Trump is on the war
The ongoing war in the Middle East is no longer limited to just missiles and bombs, but has also become a battle of rhetoric, strategy and global pressure. Donald Trump’s constantly changing statements have made this entire conflict more complicated. On one hand, Trump is claiming that ‘direct and positive talks’ are taking place between America and Iran, while on the other hand, Iran is completely rejecting these claims.
This war started with the American-Israeli attacks on February 28, after which Iran also intensified its retaliation. The situation has become such that even important sea routes like the Strait of Hormuz have been affected, due to which the risk of oil crisis and inflation has increased in the whole world. Trump’s changing claims from ‘we are winning’ to ‘a deal is about to be done’ and Iran’s tough reaction have thrown this conflict into a whirlpool of uncertainty. So today PM Modi addressed this war and he has made it clear in his gestures that we are completely prepared and has also mentioned about an epidemic like Corona. Let us understand the 10 big updates of this war…
1. Are talks really going on between America and Iran?
Trump claimed that ‘direct and productive talks’ have taken place in the last two days and a solution can be found soon. But Iran clearly said that no such talks are taking place, Trump has ‘backed down’.
2. Why did Trump avoid the attacks?
Trump talked about postponing attacks on energy targets for 5 days and linked this to the ‘tone and tenor’ of the talks. This indicated that America is simultaneously pursuing both pressure and negotiation strategies.
3. Why did ‘Strait of Hormuz’ become the center of war?
About 20% of the world’s oil passes through the Strait of Hormuz. Iran closed it to American and Israeli ships, due to which oil prices crossed $100.
4. Has America destroyed Iran’s power?
Trump said that 100% of Iran’s military capability was ‘destroyed’. But in the very next statement it was admitted that Iran can still attack with drones and missiles.
5. What is Iran’s strategy?
Iran clearly said that ‘we will decide when the war will end.’ He also intensified attacks on American targets in Gulf countries.
6. Are there differences within America too?
Former officer Joe Kent resigned and said that the first step in the process of reducing tension should be to control the Israelis…which means that even within America, differences regarding this war are increasing.
7. Is this war affecting the global economy?
The rise in oil prices, impact on the supply chain and fluctuations in the stock market are all direct effects of this war. However, Trump said that ‘if the deal happens, oil prices will drop like a rock.’
8. Could there be a bigger war ahead?
Experts believe that if the situation does not improve, this conflict could take the form of a global war. Iran has warned of endangering energy supplies and sea routes.
9. PM Modi gave this message regarding Middle East
PM Modi has addressed today regarding the ongoing war in the Middle East, in which he said that in view of the global situation, he appealed to the countrymen to be prepared. So the Corona epidemic has also been mentioned there. It is further told that three and a half lakh people have returned to India while talks are going on with global allies.
10. How many people have died in the war so far?
The ongoing war between America, Israel and Iran in the Middle East has now reached a dangerous level, where more than 2,566 deaths are telling the story of devastation in the entire region.
