The New Yorker reported on Iran's bitterness and bewilderment over how to make peace with Trump, placing the difficulty on the Iranian side at the center of its account.

The picture on the ground is shifting as well. The Washington Post reported that the United States is withdrawing forces in Iraq, with the balance of power moving toward Iran.
