US-Iran Peace Deal: A Diplomatic Illusion Built on Shifting Sands
The Vatican News portal reports that the United States and Iran have reached an agreement to end the war, with the formal signing expected on Friday in Switzerland. According to the article, mediator Pakistan announced the deal late Sunday, with President Donald Trump stating it includes the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. The conflict, which began on February 28 with U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran, quickly spread across the region, drawing in Gulf states and raising fears of a broader confrontation. The article notes a “sense of relief” among Iran’s Arab Gulf neighbors and positive reactions from European markets, while Israel’s Defence Minister Israel Katz signaled that Israeli operations in Lebanon would continue “without any time restraints.” This entire framework, however, represents nothing more than the latest in a long series of diplomatic illusions orchestrated by a world order that has systematically rejected the only true source of peace: the Social Kingship of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
