Washington Signals Swift Timeline for Iran Operation

US official said that achievable objectives of Operation Epic Fury are expected to last about six weeks. The White House says it expects U.S. military objectives in Iran to be achieved within four to six weeks , emphasizing that Operation Epic Fury is progressing as planned. According to Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, the campaign has already weakened Iran’s naval capabilities and sharply reduced missile attacks, putting the U.S. “well on its way” toward its strategic goals.  The operation, now in its second week, focuses on dismantling Iran’s ballistic missile infrastructure, degrading its navy, and limiting its pathway to nuclear weapons. Officials maintain that U.S. stockpiles and resources are sufficient to sustain the mission through its projected timeline.  As regional tensions escalate, Washington continues to frame the operation as both achievable and time‑bound, reinforcing its confidence in meeting objectives by early April.

US, Colombia Reach Agreement on Deportations; Tariffs and Sanctions Suspended

 

The United States and Colombia have reached a significant agreement regarding deportations, averting a potential trade war. The White House announced on Sunday that Colombia agreed to accept deported migrants on U.S. military aircraft, reversing its earlier refusal. In response, the U.S. has decided to hold off on imposing threatened tariffs and sanctions.

President Donald Trump had initially threatened 25% tariffs on Colombian goods and other sanctions after Colombia declined to accept deportation flights. However, Colombian President Gustavo Petro agreed to accept the migrants, ensuring that the tariffs and sanctions will remain on hold.

Colombian Foreign Minister Luis Gilberto Murillo stated, "We have overcome the impasse with the U.S. government. The Colombian government has also prepared the presidential plane to facilitate the return of deported Colombians.

The agreement highlights the importance of cooperation between the two nations, with Colombia being the third-largest U.S. trading partner in Latin America. The U.S. is Colombia's largest trading partner, with a significant trade relationship established by a 2006 free trade agreement.

The White House emphasized that this agreement demonstrates America's respected position on the global stage and expects other nations to cooperate in accepting deported citizens.
