Who Really Won The Iran War? Christiane Amanpour Presents



The war in the Middle East has stopped, but can either the US or Iran genuinely claim victory? Christiane and Jamie unpick what the Memorandum of Understanding actually includes, what it conspicuously leaves out, and why the deal could still collapse if the two sides can't agree on the nuclear question long-term.

Christiane reveals what her contacts inside Iran are telling her about the potential for peace, and she and Jamie ask whether the Islamic Republic's new regime is actually more hardline than the one it replaced.

Plus: Russia has just launched devastating airstrikes on Ukrainian cities and cultural sites in what some see as a sign of Putin's growing desperation. With world leaders gathering at the G7 this week, can they persuade Trump to turn his attention to ending that war now the Iran crisis is on hold?
