About this episode
Talk of a diplomatic offramp in the Iran war has blanketed Washington. But… Tehran says there are no talks. And… On the battlefield, the war is still expanding. So… Is de-escalation just an illusion? And the even bigger question: is this the beginning of the end? Or only the end of the beginning? FDD’s Matt Pottinger joins host Mark Dubowitz to break down why a deal may be closer than it looks, why Trump may not take it, and how this war is already reshaping the global balance of power — and why China’s watching closely.
