Episode Details

A fragile US-Iran interim deal aimed to halt Gulf fighting by reopening shipping lanes and launching a reconstruction fund, but weekend clashes reignited tensions—with US strikes on Iran and retaliatory attacks on allies. Gulf nations cautiously support the accord, prioritizing safe Strait of Hormuz transit and energy infrastructure protection, even if it means unpopular compromises like transit fees. Yet the deal ignores Iran’s missile threat, leaving Gulf states vulnerable and forcing a reckoning: increased defense spending, strategic autonomy, and a colder regional outlook may now be unavoidable.
