00:00I think they are very, very pragmatic people, especially those who are in power,
00:06and I think they are willing to compromise anything in favor of preserving the continuation of the
00:11regime. Beyond that point, they will push very hard. They are very skilled diplomats. They will
00:17get whatever they can out of any agreement, any statement, any MOU, as we are calling it.
00:24So far, the MOU they are reaching have kept out all the issue of the ballistic missiles,
00:31all the issues of the drones, all the issues of the militias in the region, and even not a clear
00:37promise that Iran will never again attack its neighbors, including the Gulf countries.
00:42So all of these are wins for Iran, and in that sense, it is practically not giving up on much.
00:48It is giving up on Hormuz, of course, but then we have to remember Hormuz was never an issue
00:52before the start of the war. It only came up as a tactic, and now they're giving up this
00:57tactical point while preserving most of their strategic points. The nuclear issue is maybe
01:04debatable, but even there, we are talking about the halting of activities. We are talking about
01:09a temporary observation and maybe the removal of the 450 kilos. Even this is not very clear.
01:17So Iran has not given up on much, and this is what's making President Trump frustrated,
01:22and he's saying that, you know, you cannot deal with them in good faith in that sense,
01:28and we have to make them sign on everything, including the observation of nuclear facilities,
01:33including that they will not ask for fees over Hormuz, including all the details,
01:38otherwise they will find a way to do otherwise.
