The need to solve global conflict through diplomacy :: Mmegi Online

In an era marked by escalating geopolitical tensions, the world faces three major flashpoints that threaten global stability: the Israel-Iran conflict, the Russia-Ukraine war, and, in a slightly smaller way, the China-Taiwan standoff. Each of these conflicts is rooted in complex historical, ideological, and strategic disputes, but they share a common truth: military escalation risks catastrophic consequences for all involved.

Israel’s airstrikes on Iranian-backed targets and Iran’s support for groups like Hezbollah threaten the region’s stability.
