[Peter Girnus 🦅 @gothburz]

I am a diplomatic aide in the Sultanate of Oman's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

My job is logistics. When two countries that cannot speak to each other need to speak to each other, I book the rooms. I prepare the briefing materials. I make sure the water glasses are the right distance apart. You would be surprised how much of diplomacy is water glasses. Too close and it feels informal. Too far and it feels like a tribunal. I have a chart.

We had a very good month.

Since January, Oman has been mediating indirect talks between the United States and Iran on Iran's nuclear program. The talks were held in Muscat and in Geneva. The Americans would sit in one room. The Iranians would sit in another room. I would walk between them. My Fitbit says I averaged fourteen thousand steps on negotiation days. The hallway between the two rooms at the Royal Opera House conference center is forty-seven meters. I walked it two hundred and twelve times in February. This is good for my cardiovascular health. It was less good for my knees. Both are in the service of peace.

By mid-February, we had something.

Iran agreed to zero stockpiling of enriched uranium. Not reduced stockpiling. Zero. They agreed to down-blend existing stockpiles to the lowest possible level. They agreed to convert them into irreversible fuel. They agreed to full IAEA verification with potential US inspector access. They agreed, in the Foreign Minister's phrase, to "never, ever" possess nuclear material for a bomb. I have worked in diplomacy for seven years. I have never seen a country agree to this many things this quickly. I made a spreadsheet of the concessions. It had fourteen rows. I color-coded it. Green for confirmed. Yellow for pending. By February 21 the spreadsheet was entirely green. I printed it. It is on my desk in Muscat. It is still green.

That phrase took eleven days. "Never, ever." The Iranians initially offered "not seek to." The Americans wanted "will not under any circumstances." We landed on "never, ever" at 2:14 AM on a Tuesday in Muscat. I typed the final version myself. I used Times New Roman because Geneva prefers it. The document was fourteen pages. I was proud of every comma.

Here is what they said, in the order they said it.

February 24: "We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity." — The Foreign Minister, private briefing to Gulf Cooperation Council ambassadors. I prepared the slide deck. Slide 14 was the implementation timeline. Slide 15 was the signing ceremony logistics. I had reserved the Palais des Nations in Geneva, Room XX. It seats four hundred. We discussed pen brands for the signing. The Iranians preferred Montblanc. The Americans had no preference. I ordered twelve Montblanc Meisterstucks at six hundred and thirty dollars each. They arrive on Tuesday.

February 27, 8:30 AM EST: "The deal is within our reach." — The Foreign Minister, CBS Face the Nation. He sat across from Margaret Brennan. He said broad political terms could be agreed "tomorrow" with ninety days for technical implementation in Vienna. He said, and I wrote this line for the briefing card he carried in his breast pocket: "If we just allow diplomacy the space it needs." He praised the American envoys by name. Steve Witkoff. Jared Kushner. He said both had been constructive.

I watched from the Four Seasons Georgetown. The minibar had cashews. I ate the cashews. They were nineteen dollars. The most expensive cashew I have ever eaten. But it was a good morning and we were within our reach.

February 27, 2:00 PM EST: Meeting with Vice President Vance, Washington. The Foreign Minister presented our progress. Zero stockpiling. Full verification. Irreversible conversion. "Never, ever." The Vice President used the word "encouraging." His aide took notes on an iPad. The aide did not make eye contact for the last nine minutes of the meeting. I noticed this. Noticing things is the only part of my job that is not water glasses.

February 27, 4:00 PM EST: "Not happy with the pace." — President Trump, to reporters.

Not happy with the pace.

We had achieved zero stockpiling. Full IAEA verification. Irreversible fuel conversion. Inspector access. And the phrase "never, ever," which took eleven days and cost me two hundred and twelve trips down a forty-seven-meter hallway.

Every American president since Carter has failed to get Iran to agree to this. Forty-five years.

Not happy with the pace.

February 27, 9:47 PM EST: The Foreign Minister's flight departs Dulles for Muscat. I am in the seat behind him. He is reviewing Slide 14 on his laptop. The implementation timeline. Vienna technical sessions. The signing ceremony. The pens.

I fall asleep over the Atlantic. I dream about water glasses.

February 28, 6:00 AM GST: I wake up to push notifications.

February 28: "The United States has begun major combat operations in Iran." — President Trump.

Operation Epic Fury. Coordinated airstrikes. The United States and Israel. Tehran. Isfahan. Qom. Karaj. Kermanshah. Nuclear facilities. IRGC bases. Sites near the Supreme Leader's office. Israel called their half Operation Roaring Lion. Someone in both governments spent time choosing these names. Epic Fury. Roaring Lion. I spent eleven days on "never, ever." They spent it on branding. The President said Iran had "rejected American calls to halt its nuclear weapons production."

Rejected.

Iran had agreed to zero stockpiling. Iran had agreed to full verification. Iran had agreed to "never, ever." Iran had agreed to everything in a fourteen-page document that I typed in Times New Roman.

The President said they rejected it.

I do not know which document the President was reading. I know which one I typed.

February 28, 18:45 UTC: Iran internet connectivity: four percent. — NetBlocks, confirmed by Cloudflare. Ninety-six percent of a country went dark. You cannot negotiate with a country at four percent connectivity. You cannot negotiate with a country that is being struck. You cannot negotiate. This is not a political opinion. This is a logistics assessment.

February 28: The governor of Minab reported forty girls killed at an elementary school.

I do not have logistics for that. There is no slide for that. The water glass chart does not cover that.

February 28: Lockheed Martin: up. Northrop Grumman: up. RTX: up. Dow futures: down six hundred and twenty-two points. Gold: five thousand two hundred and ninety-six dollars. An analyst at AInvest published a note titled "Iran Strikes: Tactical Plays." The note recommended positions in oil, defense stocks, and gold.

The most expensive cashew I have ever eaten was nineteen dollars. The most expensive pen I have ever ordered was six hundred and thirty dollars. The math suggests I have been working in the wrong industry. Defense stocks do not require water glasses. Defense stocks do not require eleven days. Defense stocks require one morning.

February 28: Israel closed its airspace and its schools. Iran launched retaliatory missiles toward US bases in the Gulf. The Supreme Leader promised a "crushing response." Israel's defense minister declared a permanent state of emergency. Everyone is using words I recognize in an order I do not. I recognize "permanent." I recognize "emergency." I do not recognize them next to each other. In diplomacy, nothing is permanent and everything is an emergency. In war it is the reverse.

February 28: The Foreign Minister has not made a public statement.

The briefing card is still in his breast pocket. It still says "within our reach."

[MoFA Indonesia @Kemlu_RI]

Indonesia sangat menyesalkan gagalnya perundingan antara AS dan Iran, yang telah berdampak pada eskalasi militer di kawasan Timur Tengah.

Indonesia menyerukan seluruh pihak untuk menahan diri dan mengedepankan dialog dan diplomasi.

Indonesia kembali menekankan pentingnya menghormati kedaulatan dan integritas wilayah setiap negara serta menyelesaikan perbedaan melalui cara damai.

Pemerintah Indonesia, dalam hal ini Presiden Republik Indonesia, menyampaikan kesiapan untuk memfasilitasi dialog bagi terciptanya kembali kondisi keamanan yang kondusif dan apabila disetujui kedua belah pihak, Presiden Indonesia bersedia untuk bertolak ke Teheran untuk melakukan mediasi.

Peningkatan ketegangan di Timur Tengah berpotensi mengganggu stabilitas kawasan serta perdamaian dan keamanan dunia.

WNI di wilayah terdampak diimbau tetap tenang, waspada, mengikuti arahan otoritas setempat, dan menjaga komunikasi dengan Perwakilan RI terdekat.

Guys, terakhir nih sebelum tidur.

Aku enggak ada urusan sama mbak-mbak LPDP itu. Dan enggak mau tahu juga urusannya.

Mau dia disuruh ganti rugi, balikin duit, atau apapun istilahnya, terserah!

Tapi, intinya, kalian harus tahu suara orang yang kecewa atau bahkan di tahap menyesal jadi WNI itu berasal dari pemerintah yang enggak becus menjalankan negara.

Setiap berganti rezim, bukannya makin benar, rakyat makin sengsara.

Sedikit saran, itu energi galaknya boleh juga nanti setelah si mbak-mbak itu habis diproses, dialihkan ke pejabat-pejabat yang kerjanya enggak bener.

Soalnya pejabat itu gaji, tunjangan, dan anggaran apapun yang dia pakai, itu duit pajak rakyat, duit keringat rakyat. Kalau dia kerja enggak benar, itu artinya dia ngeludahin rakyat.

Sekalian juga sama aparat.

Mari kita kawal semua orang-orang yang makan dan hidup pakai duit pajak rakyat untuk bisa berkontribusi dan kerja benar untuk menyejahterakan rakyat.

[Embajada de Venezuela en España @EmbaVEespana]

#COMUNICADO || La República Bolivariana de Venezuela rechaza, repudia y denuncia ante la comunidad internacional la gravísima agresión militar perpetrada por el Gobierno actual de los Estados Unidosde América contra territorio y población venezolanos en las localidades civiles y militares de la ciudad de Caracas, capital de la República, y los estados Miranda, Aragua y La Guaira. Este acto constituye una violación flagrante de la Carta de las Naciones Unidas, especialmente de sus artículos 1 y 2, que consagran el respeto a la soberanía, la igualdad jurídica de los Estados y la prohibición del uso de la fuerza. Tal agresión amenaza la paz y estabilidad internacional, concretamente de América Latina y el Caribe, y pone en grave riesgo la vida de millones de personas.

El objetivo de este ataque no es otro que apoderarse de los recursos estratégicos de Venezuela, en particular de su petróleo y minerales, intentando quebrar por la fuerza la independencia política de la Nación. No lo lograrán. Tras más de doscientos años de independencia, el pueblo y su Gobierno legítimo se mantienen firmes en defensa de la soberanía y del derecho inalienable de decidir su destino. El intento de imponer una guerra colonial para destruir la forma republicana de gobierno y forzar un "cambio de régimen", en alianza con la oligarquía fascista fracasará como todos los intentos anteriores.

Desde 1811, Venezuela ha enfrentado y vencido imperios. Cuando en 1902 potencias extranjeras bombardearon nuestras costas, el Presidente Cipriano Castro proclamó: "La planta insolente del extranjero ha profanado el sagrado suelo de la Patria." Hoy, con la moral de Bolívar, Miranda y nuestros libertadores, el pueblo venezolano se alza nuevamente para defender su independencia ante la agresión imperial.
Pueblo a la calle

El Gobierno Bolivariano llama a todas las fuerzas sociales y políticas del país a activar los planes de movilización y repudiar este ataque imperialista. El pueblo de Venezuela y su Fuerza Armada Nacional Bolivariana, en perfecta fusión popular-militar-policial, se encuentran desplegados para garantizar la soberanía y la paz. Simultáneamente, la Diplomacia Bolivariana de Paz elevará las correspondientes denuncias ante el Consejo de Seguridad de la ONU, el Secretario General de dicha organización, la CELAC y el MNOAL, exigiendo la condena y rendición de cuentas del Gobierno estadounidense.

El Presidente Nicolás Maduro ha dispuesto todos los planes de defensa nacional para ser implementados en el momento y circunstancias adecuadas, en estricto apego a lo previsto en la Constitución de la República Bolivariana de Venezuela, la Ley Orgánica sobre Estados de Excepción y la Ley Orgánica de Seguridad de la Nación.

En este sentido, el Presidente Nicolás Maduro ha firmado y ordenando la implementación del Decreto que declara el estado de Conmoción Exterior en todo el territorio nacional, para proteger los derechos de la población, el funcionamiento pleno de las instituciones republicanas y pasar de inmediato a la lucha armada. Todo el país debe activarse para derrotar esta agresión imperialista

Del mismo modo ha ordenado el inmediato despliegue del Comando para la Defensa Integral de la Nación y de los Órganos de Dirección para la Defensa Integral en todos los estados y municipios del país.

En estricto apego al artículo 51 de la Carta de las Naciones Unidas, Venezuela se reserva el derecho a ejercer la legítima defensa para proteger a su pueblo, su territorio y su independencia. Convocamos a los pueblos y gobiernos de América Latina, el Caribe y el mundo a movilizarse en solidaridad activa frente a esta agresión imperial.

Como señaló el Comandante Supremo Hugo Chávez Frías “ante cualquier circunstancia de nuevas dificultades, del tamaño que fueren, la respuesta de todos y de todas los patriotas…es unidad, lucha, batalla y victoria”.
