Could this be Trump and Netanyahu's most serious fallout yet?
About this episode
The episode discusses the escalating tensions between the US and Iran and the implications of a heated call between Trump and Netanyahu.
The US and Iran are exchanging the biggest strikes in months amid ceasefire talks. It comes just days after a call between Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu apparently got heated as negotiations over the Iran War continue. Iranian media signal talks between Tehran and Washington are ongoing, despite reports that Iran suspended them. Trump has said that negotiations are going “very well” - and that a ceasefire could happen “over the weekend”.
