‘Trump is desperate to make a deal. But Iranians are very hard negotiators’ – former US Army officer

In this episode of Sanchez Effect, we dive into the potential conflict map between Iran and the US, as Washington is basically camping out right at Iran’s front door with a huge fleet, and threats are flying around like confetti. They’re attempting to hash things out, but what if those talks go sideways? Trump keeps saying it’ll be a bad day for Tehran if things escalate, but will it really? According to our guest military expert, the answer is yes – but not just for Tehran.

Former US Army officer Stanislav Krapivnik points out that Russia and China are already sending signals by planning joint drills in Iran. For Russia, Iran is the gateway to the Caucasus and Central Asia; while for China, it opens the doors to Central Asia and beyond. They’re not about to let Iran crumble.

And remember last year’s 12-day war? Iran didn’t go all out then – it was hitting military bases, avoiding populated areas. But if this now escalates into full-blown war, it’s a very different story. Israel is tiny, and most people live in a few big cities, so missing a target would be nearly impossible. No matter where the bombs land, they’re ound to hit someone. What else could happen? We’re covering everything – weapons, ships, missiles and more – in this latest episode, only on RT.
