In Iran, Trump is both escalating and deescalating

President Trump began the week with an announcement that administration officials were having “very good and productive conversations” with Iranian officials about ending the war there, then sent more troops to the region. We discuss the state of negotiations to end the war and the conflicting messages the president is sending with his words and actions. This episode: voting correspondent Miles Parks, White House correspondent Franco Ordoñez, and national security correspondent Greg Myre. This podcast was produced by Casey Morell and Bria Suggs, and edited by Rachel Baye. Our executive producer is Muthoni Muturi.
