Trump’s War on Iran Ends with a “Triumphant” Tehran and a Diminished U.S.: Vali Nasr

The United States and Iran have officially signed a memorandum of understanding aimed at ending the war in Iran. The 14-point agreement includes an immediate end to fighting on all fronts including Lebanon, an end to the U.S. naval blockade on Iran and the full resumption of maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz. It also proposes easing oil sanctions on Iran, unfreezing Iranian assets and launching a $300 billion investment fund to rebuild Iran, all while tabling the question of Iran’s nuclear program, which is instead set to be negotiated over in the coming months. “The United States is more eager for this war to end than Iran is,” says professor Vali Nasr, who teaches at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies. “In Iran, they’re very triumphant.” We discuss the long-term effects of the war, from the growing U.S. distrust of Israel, to the new generation of political leaders in the Islamic Republic, to the evolution of Iran into a major power player in an increasingly multipolar world.

Iran Has Humiliated Trump

Officials in Tehran got the United States to sign a document that even Americans described as degrading, mortifying, a total capitulation.

Things Trump's #Iran deal does NOT do:
- Regime change
- Remove uranium from Iran
- Guarantee free transit through the Strait
- Demilitarise Iran
- Renounce support for Hezbollah or Hama's
- Fund the billions required to replace used American munitions
- Reparations for damage to Us bases, Qatar or other countries (only Iran)
- Address killed schoolgirls and other civilians

Here, we have hard evidence of what a bad dealmaker Trump is.

US
- a uranium downgrade scheme (like Obama already had)
- a reopening of the Strait (like it was before the war)
- an end to a war he started

Iran
- an end to the war and US withdrawal
- US acceptance of the theocracy
- end of sanctions
- $300 billion
- new leverage in Lebanon
- a chance for new Strait transit fees with Oman
