US Iran War: While there are expectations regarding the second round of peace talks between America and Iran in Islamabad, tensions have increased further as the deadline for ending the ceasefire approaches. meanwhile Indian-origin member of American President Donald Trump’s Republican Party Nikki Haley has made a big claim.

He said that missile making chemicals were being brought from China in the Iranian ship seized during the American blockade. Haley wrote on social media platform

US’s sensational claim

This ship is said to be “Touska” belonging to Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines, which was stopped by US forces near Chabahar port in the Gulf of Oman. According to Marine Traffic’s ship-tracking data, the ship was heading from China to Iran and was already under US sanctions.

After these claims of America, questions are also being raised about the possible role of China in this conflict. Haley says China’s help to Iran is “real” and cannot be ignored.

Iran’s strong reaction

On the other hand, Iran has reacted sharply to this action. The Iranian military has termed it “armed piracy” and accused America of violating international laws. Also, Tehran has made it clear that until the American blockade is not lifted, it will not participate in the proposed talks in Islamabad.

This incident has happened at a time when diplomatic efforts are ongoing, but military tensions, accusations and counter-accusations and the role of external powers are making this entire crisis more complicated.
