Trump's Iran ceasefire: The end of a U.S. superpower?

from Hub Podcasts

Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer examine the 14-day Iran war ceasefire and the geopolitical implications following negotiations. They analyze reports suggesting the Trump administration will allow Iran to control and toll the Strait of Hormuz, potentially ending the longstanding guarantee of free navigation. They argue that this concession would strengthen China's influence on the region, undermine American credibility globally, and possibly mark a historic turning point signaling the end of Pax Americana and post-Second World War globalization.Subscribe to The Hub's podcast feed to get all our best content:https://tinyurl.com/3a7zpd7e (Apple)https://tinyurl.com/y8akmfn7 (Spotify)Watch a video version on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheHubCanadaFollow The Hub on X: https://x.com/thehubcanada?lang=enCREDITS:Amal Attar-Guzman - ProducerAlisha Rao - EditorRudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer - HostsKamran Jebreili/AP Photo File - Photo Credit Hosted on Acast.
