Middle East Institute associate fellow Nazee Moinian joins ‘The Story’ to discuss Vice President JD Vance reaching out to an Iranian hard-liner about peace talks, the Iranian regime and more.

Moinian discusses the possibility of renewed peace talks following reports that JD Vance reached out to an Iranian hard-liner at Donald Trump’s direction. She also analyzes the potential diplomatic fallout, reports of preparations for military strikes and Barack Obama’s defense of his administration’s nuclear deal during a campaign speech in Georgia.
