Trump-Iran time crunch
A Haaretz analysis said that the Democrats’ victory in winning a majority in Congress had narrowed the window for Donald Trump to resume military operations against Iran before the new Congress takes office, even though he retains the authority to order strikes without prior legislative approval. Mediation efforts are stalling because Washington insists that negotiations begin with the nuclear issue, while Tehran is demanding that the maritime blockade be lifted and oil sanctions eased. The 2015 nuclear agreement review law could also give Congress 30 days to examine any deal. The newspaper suggested that a phased agreement—reopening the Strait of Hormuz, lifting the blockade, ending hostilities and postponing the nuclear issue—could offer a way out. It noted that military action would not guarantee the erasure of Iran’s nuclear know-how.
