Former Foreign Secretary Kanwal Sibal has called for an immediate cessation of hostilities in West Asia, stating that the ongoing conflict imposes an unbearable burden on countries worldwide.

Sibal criticizes US President Donald Trump for attacking Iran, a move he perceives as a monumental error with severe economic consequences. The conflict, sparked by a military strike that claimed the life of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, now threatens global oil supplies and economies, affecting countries as diverse as India, the Global South, Europe, and the US.

With rising oil prices impacting the world's economy, Sibal warns that the continued conflict could exacerbate an already fragile situation, urging international diplomacy to prevent further destabilization.
