"A Disastrous Development": Trita Parsi on Breakdown of U.S.-Iran Ceasefire
We speak with political analyst Trita Parsi, executive vice president of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, about the latest events in the Middle East. The United States has bombed Iran for multiple days after President Donald Trump declared the ceasefire between the countries to be “over.” Iran says it has retaliated by attacking U.S. military bases and other strategic sites in Bahrain, Kuwait and Qatar. Parsi says the renewal of fighting is “a disastrous development” for chances of a long-term peace and a reset in the U.S.-Iran relationship. “Both countries are in dire need of an end to this war.”

Trump says Iran ceasefire is 'over': 'They're scum. They're sick people'
President Donald Trump said he believes the 60-day ceasefire with Iran is over, after U.S. warplanes and missiles hit more than 80 targets following attacks from the regime on commercial vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz. Speaking at the NATO summit in Ankara, Turkey, Trump stopped short of ending negotiations with Iran, but said: I'll speak to our negotiators. They want to negotiate they're good people — Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner — but they have to come back to me, and as far as I'm concerned it's just a waste of time dealing with them.
