Episode Details

Vice President Vance allegedly struck a major deal with Iran that could reshape regional dynamics—ending hostilities, reopening the Strait of Hormuz, and lifting sanctions—with nuclear talks set to conclude in 60 days. Senator Rubio is now in Abu Dhabi trying to convince Gulf allies, many of whom have been tougher on Iran than the U.S., that the deal offers real benefits. Though it sidesteps Iran’s missile program and proxy support, Rubio insists the “end of hostilities” clause implicitly covers stopping funding for Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis. He also froze a proposed $300 billion investment fund, saying it’s conditional on Iran acting like a nation—not a terror exporter. On Hormuz, Rubio drew a firm line: tolls are unacceptable under international law, and Gulf states agree.
