Episode Iran deadline: is it too late for Trump to back down?

0:00 12:40

We are hours away from Donald Trump’s deadline for Iran to reopen the strait of Hormuz. The President has ‘chickened out’ many times before and offered an extension of some kind, but the threats and posturing ahead of this deadline make it difficult for either side to back down. Will Trump really ‘end Iranian civilisation’ tonight?

James Heale speaks to Michael Stephens.

Produced by Oscar Edmondson.
