Why Trump has surrendered to Iran | Robert Kagan
About this episode
America has lost the war with Iran and suffered their biggest strategic defeat in history.
That is according to Robert Kagan, a prominent foreign policy analyst and historian. He joins Richard on the podcast in this extra episode to talk about America’s position in the world following the start of the war in the Gulf.
Why did Trump get involved? What next for Israel? Can the Gulf States still count on America to defend them? The two get into all of these questions and debate whether this actually was America’s biggest global loss.
