US and Iran in New Diplomatic Efforts Amidst Military Tensions

Kathmandu. New diplomatic efforts have begun regarding a potential agreement to end the two-month-long military tension between the United States and Iran. Tehran has stated that it is reviewing new proposals from Washington just hours after US President Donald Trump warned Iran of a 'larger scale bombing' if it did not accept the agreement. Although a ceasefire has been maintained, tensions in the Gulf region have not yet subsided.

The conflict that began on February 28 with joint military action by the United States and Israel against Iran had a serious impact on the global energy market, maritime trade, and regional security. Although a formal ceasefire has been in place since April 8, negotiations for a permanent solution have not yet reached a conclusion.
