Trump Declares Iran War 'Terminated' Amid Congressional Approval Debate
President Trump has informed Congress that the war with Iran is 'terminated,' arguing that the administration does not require congressional approval to continue military operations. This declaration comes as the 60-day deadline set by the War Powers Act approaches, which typically necessitates congressional consent for ongoing military engagements. Despite a ceasefire in place since April 7, the Trump administration maintains that the conflict's cessation negates the need for further approval. Meanwhile, Iran has submitted a new peace proposal through Pakistani mediators, though its contents remain undisclosed.
