चीन से परेशान ईरान को घेर लिया अब अमेरिका ने भारत क्यों पीछे पड़ा

चीन से परेशान ईरान को घेर लिया अब अमेरिका ने भारत क्यों पीछे पड़ा The latest US-Iran developments in February 2026 reveal intense geopolitical tensions centered on Iran's nuclear program, with President Donald Trump pursuing a high-stakes mix of diplomacy and military pressure.Following indirect nuclear talks in Geneva on February 17, 2026—mediated by Oman and involving US envoys and Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi—both sides reported some progress on "guiding principles" and "common goals," but significant gaps persist. Iran agreed to submit a written proposal within two weeks to address US concerns, particularly demands to halt uranium enrichment and limit ballistic missile capabilities. However, Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei rejected these core US red lines in a February 17 speech, insisting Iran has a sovereign right to its nuclear industry and deterrent weapons (ballistic missiles), which he deemed non-negotiable.The Trump administration has escalated rhetoric and military posture dramatically. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt warned that Iran would be "very wise" to strike a deal with President Trump, amid reports that US forces are positioned for potential strikes on Iranian nuclear sites, ballistic missile facilities, or leadership targets as early as this weekend (late February 2026). A massive buildup of air and naval assets—including aircraft carriers in the Persian Gulf and Arabian Sea—has positioned the US military for rapid action, though Trump has not made a final decision. Sources indicate the approach combines ongoing diplomacy with credible threats of force to pressure Tehran into concessions.Parallel escalations include joint Iran-Russia naval drills in the Sea of Oman, aimed at deterring "unilateral actions," and Russia's calls for restraint amid the US buildup. Betting markets reportedly price a 70% chance of US strikes on Iran by June 2026, heightening risks of broader Middle East conflict, including disruptions to global oil routes like the Strait of Hormuz.In a related development tying into strategic basing, Trump publicly warned UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer against finalizing the Chagos Islands sovereignty transfer to Mauritius (with a 99-year lease for the Diego Garcia base), calling it a "big mistake." He emphasized Diego Garcia's potential role in any US operation to counter threats from a "highly unstable and dangerous" Iranian regime, underscoring the base's critical importance for power projection in the Indian Ocean region.These intertwined issues highlight the fragile balance between negotiation and confrontation: the US seeks a swift deal to dismantle Iran's nuclear ambitions, while Iran resists core concessions amid domestic pressures and alliances with Russia. The coming weeks could prove decisive, with risks of military escalation if diplomacy falters.For the latest updates on US-Iran nuclear talks, Trump Iran policy, potential US strikes on Iran 2026, and Diego Garcia strategic role, monitor evolving developments in this high-stakes standoff shaping global security and energy markets.
