Caught Between Trump and Tehran – with Dr. Michael Oren

  • Summary

  • As nuclear talks between the United States and Iran get underway, Israel is watching with unease. What’s being billed as technical negotiations over uranium levels and verification protocols is, in truth, a high-stakes diplomatic gamble with enormous implications for the Middle East.

    Iran is dragging its feet, playing for time. Former President Donald Trump, eager for a foreign policy win ahead of the election, wants a deal sealed fast. And Israel is stuck in the middle—between a regime that seeks its destruction and an ally willing to look the other way to score political points.

    Dr. Michael Oren returns to Boundless Insights to discuss the deal and what’s at stake. Drawing on his experience as Israel’s former ambassador to Washington, he shares why the current moment echoes the lead-up to the 2015 Iran deal—and why this time, the risks may be even greater.

    We talk about the limits of trust in any deal with Tehran, the challenges of verification, and what Israel can do when it’s excluded from decisions that threaten its security. And we ask a central question: can the West afford to underestimate Iran again?
