According to international media reports, the resolution aims to prevent war with Iran and require President Donald Trump to obtain congressional approval for any new military strikes.
Reuters reported that the purpose of this measure is to halt escalation with Iran and ensure that the president does not act unilaterally in initiating further conflict.
Chuck Schumer, the Democratic leader in the U.S. Congress, stated: “Congress must reassert its authority, especially at this dangerous moment.”
This comes as a recent agreement has been reached between Iran and the United States on a 14-day ceasefire.
