About this episode
President Trump backed down from his social media threat that “a whole civilization will die” after Pakistan helped broker a ceasefire deal with Iran. But the United States is likely to remain isolated from its allies as many look for economic and diplomatic solutions to the conflict that do not involve America. We talk about the latest developments in the war and the consequences of America’s growing isolation from its allies.
Guests:
Idrees Kahloon, staff writer, The Atlantic
Edward Wong, diplomatic correspondent, The New York Times
Tom Dannenbaum, professor of law, Stanford Law School
