Suzanne Maloney discusses the recent military tensions between Iran and the US, along with other guests.
Early this morning, Iran launched retaliatory strikes on American bases in the region, after the US military struck strategic locations near the Strait of Hormuz, which were themselves a response to Iran's downing of a US Army helicopter earlier this week. This came shortly after Iran and Israel exchanged fire over the weekend. Suzanne Maloney is a leading expert on Iran and the Persian Gulf policy at the Brookings Institution. She joins the show to discuss the latest. Also on today's show: former Irish Senator-turned-journalist Maira Cahill; Heidi Blake, Staff Writer, The New Yorker; Shell US President Colette Hirstius Learn more about your ad choices.
