United States President Donald Trump’s ceasefire announcement has divided opinion among US lawmakers, with some hailing it as a positive step and others challenging the Republican president’s fitness to lead. “Whether by his Cabinet or Congress, the President must be removed from office.

This was achieved with overwhelming force,” wrote the congressman from Iowa. “Now the mission shifts to securing a lasting agreement that ensures Iran can never threaten the world with a nuclear weapon again.”AFP
