Description:

Iran and the U.S. have agreed to a two week ceasefire and Iran has agreed to open up the Strait of Hormuz. After posting “a whole civilization will die tonight,” Donald Trump gave Iran a deadline to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and then a last minute agreement was reached. Gregg Carlstrom, Middle East correspondent for The Economist, joins us from Qatar to talk about the conditions of the ceasefire. And Mehrzad Boroujerdi, Professor of Political Science at Missouri University of Science and Technology, talks about reaction in the Iranian diaspora and the political fallout of the war in the United States.
