Episode Details

Following President Trump’s unexpected mediation of a ceasefire between Israel and Iran—after a targeted strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities—the world is watching closely. But serious questions remain: Is this truly the end of the conflict, or just a temporary lull? Will Israel push for regime change in Tehran? What is the significance of Iran’s reported relocation of highly enriched uranium to undisclosed sites? Can diplomacy prevail, or is the region headed for deeper confrontation? To unpack the implications and global ramifications, the program featured two distinguished experts: Professor Gregory Aftandilian Nonresident Fellow, Arab Center Washington DC Senior Lecturer in U.S. Foreign Policy, American University A seasoned former U.S. government official and Middle East policy expert, with over 20 years of experience in the State Department and U.S. Senate.
