US President Donald Trump said Wednesday that there was «no time frame” for ending the war with Iran, stressing that his administration wants a “good deal for the American people.” But with distrust deepening and the Iranian regime still in place, is a deal still possible?
«The fact that the vice president of the United States is leading a delegation to negotiate with Iran is not a small thing,» Ariane Tabatabai, Council senior fellow and vice president of research on security and defense, said of the prospects for an agreement. At the same time, US «policy remains confused and the messaging confusing, which doesn’t lend itself particularly well when you’re trying to negotiate with an adversary.»
