 Letter Punlished in The National UAE on 12June26,

Diplomacy,please

I write in reference to David Vujanovic’s article Trump and Iran envoy express optimism over deal (June 9): both sides should remain committed to the agreement and ensure that any ceasefire or peace arrangement is strictly respected. The sooner a lasting deal is reached through peaceful negotiations, the greater the relief, not only for the region but also for the global economy, which has been affected by uncertainty and rising tensions. It is hoped that both parties will continue to engage constructively so that the negotiations can lead to a peaceful and sustainable resolution. – K Ragavan, Bengaluru, India
