Iran War: Will the Ceasefire Hold?

CONFLICTED

An ex-Al Qaeda jihadi turned MI6 spy and a former monk turned filmmaker, have been embedded at the heart of conflicts in the Middle East. Together Aimen Dean and Thomas Small unpack the realities of war, fundamentalism and their global implications through first-hand experience.

Aimen does his best to explain the sudden and somewhat unexpected ceasefire between the United States and Iran which was announced early on Tuesday.

Aimen and Thomas discuss:

 Pakistan's role: what game are they playing?

 Russia's delicate balancing act between Iran and the GCC

 How GCC leaders cope with President Trump's erratic shifts in messaging and policy

 Did Netanyahu know about the ceasefire in advance?

 The potential coup in Lebanon which Israel's intervention stopped

 Whether Lebanon is included in the ceasefire or not

 What U.S. military hardware is on its way to the region

 Why European politicians and diplomats still support containment when it comes to Iran while being gung-ho against Russia

 How energy dependence helps explain the posture of Pakistan, Egypt, and Turkey

 How the Islamabad talks between Vance and Ghalibaf are likely to go down
