About this episode
What happens when Trump threatens to wipe out your civilisation?
In this week’s episode, Christiane and Jamie discuss Trump’s ultimatum: re-open the Strait or he’ll target key infrastructure. If the Iranians don’t reach a deal, will Trump commit a war crime? And what does it mean for US military generals: will they follow unlawful orders or resign?
They discuss the consequences of this and what could happen if this escalates to an energy war in the region, with the risk of the whole regional infrastructure being destroyed.
Plus they discuss Pakistan’s bold peace proposal. The plan suggests strict limits on Iran’s nuclear programme and the re-opening of the Strait of Hormuz, but in return for what?
