But officials close to the negotiations explained to me some basics. #Pakistan, backed by #China, has been leading a widening #global #coalition that for 10 days has crafted a framework for a #settlement. Contacts about this peace deal between #Washington & Tehran were muddled, partly because of wartime havoc inside Iran. Message exchanges that would normally take 2 to 3 hours have stretched to 24 to 36, officials said."

A quotation from Lincoln

Discourage litigation. Persuade your neighbors to compromise whenever you can. Point out to them how the nominal winner is often a real loser — in fees, expenses, and waste of time. As a peacemaker the lawyer has a superior opportunity of being a good man. There will still be business enough.

Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) American lawyer, politician, US President (1861-65)
Speech (1850), Notes for a Law Lecture (fragment)
