Episode Will Trump strike Iran, again?

0:00 39:04

As officials from Trump's top team and the Iranian regime prepare for another round of talks, Christiane reveals the warnings she was given by key diplomats at the Munich Security Conference about the chances of Trump launching another round of strikes against Iran.

Christiane also explains how she sought out Reza Pahlavi - Iran's exiled Crown Prince and one of the people who could take over if the Ayatollah's regime is toppled - at the same Conference to hear at length about his plans for a potential transition of power. She and Jamie discuss whether a return to a monarchy would be in Iran's best interests, and Christiane explains why she feels there's now support among many ordinary Iranians for the prospect of a US military intervention.

Christiane & Jamie also reflect on Marco Rubio's speech to European allies in Munich: was it a Valentine's Day embrace, or another warning that America no longer has Europe's back?
