What happened

Genie Godula is pleased to welcome Ali Vaez, Iran Project Director at the International Crisis Group.

Why it matters

As Iran and the US seek an end to the war, an agreement so far remains elusive.

Common ground

Vaez challenges Donald Trump's claims that a deal is imminent, arguing that Trump is trapped between "an unwinnable war and an unpresentable deal".

Perspective signals

The tension in the story is sharpened by Loaded Language, Black-and-White Fallacy: language that can make the dispute feel more urgent, personal, or adversarial than the underlying facts alone.
