Iran makes a fool of Trump as another peace deal falls apart; U.S. launches new attacks
About this episode
Jen Psaki interviews Robert Malley about the failed peace deal with Iran and ongoing U.S. military actions.
Donald Trump successfully lured the U.S. media into publishing headlines about another imminent peace deal with Iran over Memorial Day weekend, only for the deal to fall apart yet again and the days later the U.S. is firing more missiles despite the ongoing so-called ceasefire. Robert Malley, former special envoy to Iran, talks with Jen Psaki about the cycle of failure Trump is stuck in and what steps could realistically make progress toward re-opening the Strait of Hormuz and ending U.S. military action in Iran.
