How long will hostilities in Iran last? Former Secretary of State Antony Blinken says it will likely depend on “markets and munitions.” In an interview with the Big Take podcast, Blinken and host David Gura discuss the Obama and Biden administrations’ efforts to avoid conflict with Iran, the unanticipated ways this war puts the US at risk and how the strikes could reshape the region.
