Episode Details

President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian are in New York as the United Nations General Assembly opens, putting the two leaders in the same city for the first time since the US-Iran war began. With tensions still high, the possibility of direct or indirect contact between Washington and Tehran becomes one of the biggest diplomatic questions of the week.

In this episode of Epic Fury, we examine Trump's meeting with the six Gulf Cooperation Council leaders, Iran's seven conditions for ending the war, and Tehran's warning that a new US strike remains possible. We also look at the latest military situation, the pause in Iranian missile and drone attacks, the Strait of Hormuz, Saudi oil exports, and the growing pressure on global energy markets.

The episode also covers the approaching September 30 deadline for the US-led coalition withdrawal from Iraq, Iran-backed militias refusing to disarm, Iran's worsening economy, domestic repression, and the latest developments in Yemen and the Houthi conflict.

Beyond the Iran war, Chinese President Xi Jinping's upcoming Washington visit could bring another major diplomatic test for Trump, with Iran, the Strait of Hormuz, trade and artificial intelligence potentially on the agenda.

This is your daily briefing on the US-Iran war, Trump, Iran, Tehran, the Middle East, oil prices, the Strait of Hormuz, geopolitics and the global economic impact of the conflict.
