Iran's nuclear standoff has left it in a bind
[Ynet] Tehran's 60-day ultimatum to Europe, China and Russia to renegotiate the 2015 agreement brokered by Obama and rejected by Trump could leave the Islamic Theocratic Republicwith no option but to go cap in hand to the Americans, unless the ayatollahs are playing a more dangerous game Iran’s leaders don’t have suicidal tendencies. Their every move is calculated, with cost-benefit considerations in mind. Thus, the latest crisis which saw US military move Patriot missile batteries to the Mideast - fearing an Iranian attack - will probably result in some type of negotiations between the two sides. In the Western world, however, no one understands exactly what’s going on inside the heads of the ayatollahs and to where this will escalate. Posted by: trailing wife 2019-05-15 |
