Event Overview
US administration says war "terminated", no approval needed
The US administration says the war has been terminated and argues no congressional approval is needed, a claim echoed by France 24 reporting that lawmakers are deadlocked on the War Powers Resolution as the 60-day deadline approaches. France 24 notes the deadline compels a decision on continued action or withdrawal, but states no agreement exists. New York Post counters by citing President Trump calling Iran’s latest proposal a non-starter and asserting that the 60-day limit is unconstitutional, while Tehran reportedly passed its proposal to Washington through mediators. Overall, the situation centers on a disputed interpretation of Congressional authorization requirements as hostilities approach the 60-day mark.
