Washington, May 25: US President Donald Trump has stated that any agreement to end the ongoing war with Iran must include the participation and commitments of several additional countries, beyond just Tehran and Washington.
Speaking at the White House, Trump emphasized that regional stability cannot be achieved through a bilateral arrangement alone. He noted that the involvement of key allies and regional stakeholders is essential to ensure that the terms of any settlement are comprehensive and enforceable.
The President underscored that countries in the Middle East and beyond have a direct stake in the outcome of the conflict, particularly regarding security, energy, and trade. He added that their inclusion would strengthen the credibility of the agreement and prevent Iran from exploiting loopholes.
Officials indicated that Washington is considering consultations with Gulf states, European partners, and other international actors to build a broader framework for peace. Trump reiterated that the US remains committed to defending its interests but prefers a durable resolution achieved through collective responsibility.
Analysts suggest the President’s remarks reflect a strategy to widen the diplomatic front, ensuring that any deal addresses not only military de-escalation but also nuclear safeguards, regional influence, and humanitarian concerns.
