A satirical sculpture that has sparked controversy in the Middle East is set to make its way to the United States, with the 'Iran War Participation Trophy' arriving in New York City. The artwork, designed by Iranian artist Parastou Forouhar, is a tongue-in-cheek jab at former US President Donald Trump's 2017 decision to withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal. The sculpture, which appears to be a mock trophy, is meant to poke fun at the idea that Iran has been "participating" in a war with the US, despite the two countries not being directly at war. The arrival of the sculpture in New York City is expected to reignite debate about the complex relationship between the US and Iran.
