“Tehran plays geopolitical three-cushion”: how Trump is losing his grip on conflict with Israel and Hezbollah

Donald Trump says an agreement with Iran is within reach. He does this for the 38th time since the start of the war, 101 days ago today. But the American president appears to be no longer in control as Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu continues the war against Iranian ally Hezbollah in Lebanon, while Tehran demands that Israel stop it. What should happen next? “Iran will decide when a deal will be reached. There is great distrust in quickly concluding an agreement with the US, because Iran has already been cheated out of the negotiations three times,” says defense specialist Roger Housen.
