Topic 2075
The US Iran ceasefire has completely collapsed as both sides exchanged strikes across the region, hitting tankers, airports, and military bases in Kuwait, Bahrain, UAE, and beyond, while Rubio confirmed to the Senate that what passes for negotiations is nothing more than courier delivered messages passed through Pakistan. Alex Christoforou and The Duran break down the full timeline of the escalation, Trump's explosive New York Post interview calling Netanyahu effing crazy, Ukraine's mass drone assault on St Petersburg timed to derail the opening of the economic forum, Russia's decision to cut aviation fuel exports to the collective west, and the alarming parallel between Armenia under Pashinyan and the early stages of the Ukraine Maidan playbook. Is the situation with Iran heading toward full escalation, or is this just the new normal of a ceasefire in name only?
