The debate over war powers in the United States has been reignited.


A critical legal controversy emerged after the military actions taken by Donald Trump against Iran.
According to the War Powers Resolution, which limits the U.S. president's authority to declare war, military operations conducted without Congress's approval cannot exceed 60 days.
The operation, allegedly, was as follows:
An attack on Iran was launched at the end of February.
Congress was officially notified at the beginning of March.
The 60-day period ended on May 1st.
During this time, no vote was obtained in Congress, and no official authorization was granted.
However, the Trump administration argued in a letter that the period was no longer in effect, explaining that "active hostilities have ended."
The decisive outcome of this interpretation could be:
➡️ It is claimed that if hostilities resume, the 60-day period can start again.
If this approach is accepted, it could pave the way for the president to carry out military operations for longer periods without Congress's approval.
The issue is not just about Iran. At the core of the debate, the question is:
Is the decision to go to war in the United States truly under Congress's control or the president's?
While some Republicans and Democrats argue that it may be illegal, civil society organizations say the process should be closely monitored.
These developments could be a significant test of the separation of powers in the United States.
