The situation in the Middle East could escalate into a regional war  - 1

What is happening in the Middle East could easily escalate into a regional war, but the truce in the Gaza Strip still it is possible. US President Joe Biden expressed confidence in this in an interview broadcast on the television company CBS.

Asked if he considered a Gaza ceasefire possible before he leaves office in January 2025, the head of state replied: “Yes. It's still possible." “The cease-fire plan that I prepared, approved by the G-7, approved by the UN Security Council and others, is still viable. And I work literally every day - and my entire team - to prevent the situation from escalating into a regional war. But that could easily happen,”, Biden replied.
