'Trump has boxed himself in' – Professor John Mearsheimer on Iran
About this episode
Will Donald Trump strike Iran? After General Dan Caine reportedly cautioned the President that a lack of munitions and support from allies could mean greater danger for U.S, speculation is mounting in Washington over whether Trump will proceed with a military attack on Iran. Freddy Gray is joined by Professor John Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago to assess what Trump is really planning – and what options he actually has. They discuss Iran’s advancing nuclear programme, its ballistic missile capabilities, why Trump may be getting cold feet, and the extent of past American involvement in efforts at regime change in Tehran.
