Trump vs Iran: Army movements and trigger warnings, is the world really moving towards a new war?
News India Live, Digital Desk: The world had not yet recovered from the war in Ukraine and Gaza that now the smell of gunpowder has started coming on another front. The years-old rivalry between America and Iran has now reached a new and dangerous level. Recently Donald Trump made a big claim that the American army is moving towards Iran. As soon as this news came out, the response from Iran has heated up the atmosphere even more. Iran’s clear message: “Our hand is on the trigger.” Iran’s military commanders have bluntly said that their army is on ‘high alert’ and their finger is on the ‘trigger’. This simply means that they are fully prepared to respond to any kind of attack. Often such language is used in diplomacy when water starts passing above the head. Iran wants to show that it is not afraid of Trump’s ‘Maximum Pressure Policy’. Donald Trump has always taken a tough stance towards Iran. Be it pulling out of the nuclear deal or imposing economic sanctions. Now that he is again in the headlines and big claims are being made on his behalf about the army, the question arises whether this is really a preparation for an attack or just a ‘psychological warfare’? Political experts say that Trump often tries to bring the other party to the negotiating table through such statements. But Iran’s statement of ‘finger on trigger’ is showing that this time it is in the mood for retaliatory action rather than talks. What are its dangers for the world? Tension between Iran and America means unrest in the Middle East. And this has a direct impact on us and you. From rising oil prices to the global stock market, everything hinges on peace in the region. If there is even a small spat between the two, the whole world will have to pay the price in the form of inflation. Will diplomacy get a chance? Despite so much bitterness, behind the scenes a door for diplomacy is always open. The question is, will Trump and Iran’s leaders put aside their ego and choose the path of peace? At present, the atmosphere is such that everyone is watching with bated breath to see whose next move will be.
