A Third U.S. Aircraft Carrier Approaches the Middle East - Jordan News
A Third U.S. Aircraft Carrier Approaches the Middle East A U.S. Navy official announced on Friday that the aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford will set course for Europe next week, making it the third U.S. aircraft carrier to be positioned near the Middle East amid rising tensions. اضافة اعلان The U.S. military has conducted multiple exercises over the past week following the outbreak of war between Washington's ally Israel and Iran. On Thursday, President Donald Trump gave himself a two-week deadline to decide on possible direct military action against Tehran. According to the Navy official, the Gerald R. Ford is scheduled to depart its home port in Norfolk, on the U.S. East Coast, on the morning of June 24, as part of a pre-planned deployment toward Europe. The USS Gerald R. Ford is the first in a new generation of supercarriers. It weighs 100,000 tons, runs on nuclear power, and officially entered service in 2017. Currently, the USS Carl Vinson has been stationed in the Middle East for several months, having taken part in U.S. airstrikes against Houthi rebels in Yemen. Meanwhile, the USS Nimitz, previously anchored in the South China Sea, is also en route to the Middle East. Over the past week, large military aircraft have departed from the U.S. toward American bases in Europe, while dozens of warplanes have been withdrawn from Al-Udeid Air Base in Qatar as a precaution against potential Iranian strikes. Before the outbreak of the current conflict, Washington had been engaged in indirect negotiations with Tehran over its nuclear program. However, Iran has refused to resume talks as long as Israeli attacks against it continue. — (Agencies)

Pakistan to nominate Trump for Nobel Peace Prize over India-Pakistan ceasefire
Pakistan announced on Saturday its intention to nominate US President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, praising his role in ending the recent conflict between India and Pakistan. Officials said Trump's intervention demonstrated the diplomatic foresight and political skill needed to defuse a rapidly escalating crisis. Some analysts in Pakistan suggest that this move could encourage Trump to reconsider any potential involvement with Israel in strikes against Iran's nuclear facilities. Pakistan has strongly condemned Israeli attacks, describing them as violations of international law and threats to regional stability. In May, Trump's unexpected announcement of a ceasefire brought an abrupt end to a four-day conflict between the two nuclear-armed neighbors. Since then, Trump has repeatedly claimed credit for averting a nuclear war and saving millions of lives, while expressing frustration over the lack of recognition. While Pakistan credits US diplomatic efforts for halting the fighting, India maintains the ceasefire was the result of a bilateral agreement between its and Pakistan's militaries. Pakistan stated: 'President Trump showed remarkable strategic vision and exceptional political acumen through his strong diplomatic engagement with both Islamabad and New Delhi, leading to the de-escalation of a rapidly deteriorating situation... This intervention stands as proof of his role as a true peacemaker.' Governments have the right to nominate individuals for the Nobel Peace Prize. So far, there has been no official response from Washington, and Indian government representatives did not reply to requests for comment.
