Why does Iran think it’s won the war?
Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description
Donald Trump has claimed a ‘complete victory’ in his war in Iran during a phone call to Sky News just hours after the two sides agreed a temporary ceasefire.
But Iran is also declaring a win as it handed over a 10-point plan which includes maintaining control of the Strait of Hormuz and full US military withdrawal from the Middle East.
So will the ceasefire last? Is that the end of free passage through the Strait of Hormuz? And what about Israel’s role?
Gareth Barlow speaks to Sky News’ defence and security analyst Michael Clarke about who is really winning and what happens next.
