  • This latter possibility may seem to be pushing optimism to its limits, yet it was the subject of an intriguing editorial in the Economist last week, urging Donald Trump to earn his place in history by achieving a "miraculous reconciliation" between the two countries.

The article from the New Statesman discusses the potential implications of Donald Trump's foreign policy, particularly focusing on his approach to Iran and the Gaza conflict if he were to win the 2024 presidential election. Trump has hinted at negotiating a peace deal between Israel and Iran, a move that would be unprecedented given the long-standing enmity between the two nations.

Critics argue that Trump's transactional style might oversimplify complex geopolitical issues, potentially destabilizing the region further. The article also touches on Trump's past actions, like the withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal, which have already heightened tensions in the Middle East. There's skepticism about whether Trump could genuinely broker peace or if his policies might instead lead to more conflict, especially considering his history of unpredictability and preference for unilateral actions over multilateral diplomacy.
