Inside the breakdown of U.S.-Iran nuclear talks

Ali Vaez, a senior advisor who was deeply involved in the 2015 JCPOA negotiations, provides an inside look at the recent and catastrophic breakdown of diplomatic relations between the United States and Iran. Despite indications that a renewed nuclear agreement was nearly reached late last month, the diplomatic window closed abruptly. This failure served as the precursor to the current military conflict initiated by the United States and Israel against Iranian targets. Vaez discusses the strategic miscalculations, political pressures, and the specific turning points that led from the verge of a deal to the outbreak of war.
