Genie Godula is pleased to welcome Ali Vaez, Iran Project Director at the International Crisis Group. As Iran and the US seek an end to the war, an agreement so far remains elusive. Vaez challenges Donald Trump's claims that a deal is imminent, arguing that Trump is trapped between "an unwinnable war and an unpresentable deal".
