Is the war between America and Iran over? Trump wrote a letter to US lawmakers, what did he tell about the deal?

US President Donald Trump told lawmakers that the war against Iran is over, so the deadline for seeking approval from Parliament for military action does not apply to him. The White House has sent a letter to the US Parliament in this regard. According to Politico, Trump said in a letter to Congress leaders, ‘There has been no firing between the US and Iran since April 7, 2026.’

He said, ‘The hostilities that started on 28 February 2026 have now ended.’ Xinhua News Agency quoted the report as saying that this step is an attempt to calm the debate whether Congress’s approval was necessary for this military action. Under the War Powers Resolution, enacted in 1973, the President has to end the action within 60 days after notifying Congress of the use of military force. They cannot continue military action without Congress’s approval.

Trump had informed Parliament on March 2

America and Israel started major military operations against Iran on 28 February. The Trump administration had formally informed Congress about this on March 2, according to which the 60-day deadline was to end on May 1. At the same time, Trump also said on Friday that talks with Iran are still uncertain and he is not satisfied with the current proposals, although he has kept the options of both diplomacy and military action open.
