Trump's team behind the failed US-Iran talks in Islamabad — a real estate envoy, a son-in-law, and a political convert — reveals a dangerous confusion of diplomacy with business deal-making, while also laying bare the deep-seated illusion of American exceptionalism.

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson says Trump’s decision to launch a war against Iran represents the greatest foreign policy blunder of any American leader in his lifetime.

Hours after the Iran-US ceasefire, Israel violated the truce with Lebanon strikes. In retaliation, Hezbollah has been targeting Israeli military sites and other assets across the occupied territories.

Washington’s sudden push for a ceasefire and negotiations with Iran was not a sign of goodwill but a desperate admission of strategic failure after failing to achieve any of its war objectives, says a US-based journalist.

Iran has cemented unchallenged authority over the Strait of Hormuz, transforming the waterway into a permanent instrument of strategic influence and economic leverage that no power can undermine.

As high-stakes negotiations with the US are underway in Islamabad, a strategic assessment reveals that Iran is not seeking compromise but to consolidate the gains of the war it won.

Ali Akbar Velayati, a senior advisor to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, has said that Iran's powerful diplomacy today serves as evidence of its commitment to safeguarding regional stability in light of the country's national authority.
