Summary
Vice President JD Vance just wrapped high-stakes talks in Switzerland with Iran, backed by U.S. power players and regional mediators, aiming to end a war that erupted in February — with nuclear fears and oil chokepoints at the core. While both sides signed a tentative deal last week, fighting flared again in Lebanon and Iran briefly shut down the Strait of Hormuz — but a ceasefire is holding. Vance called it “great progress,” while Trump immediately doubled down online, warning Iran’s proxies and threatening escalation. The clock is ticking: 60 days to seal the deal — and the world’s economy and security hang in the balance. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
