About this episode
Unacceptable. That was the immediate reaction from US President Donald Trump to Iran's proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Tehran says it's still awaiting what it called a "definitive response" from Washington through mediators. But Trump has said Iran needs a deal because, in his words, it's "losing badly." So, is his rejection of the proposal an effort to pressure Tehran for more concessions?
In this episode:
- Abas Aslani, Senior Research Fellow at the Center for Middle East Strategic Studies
- Henry Ensher, former US diplomat and former US Deputy Assistant Secretary of State
- Zeidon Alkinani, Founding Director of the Arab Perspectives Institute
