Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan have signed a historic
trilateral defence agreement containing a Nato-style mutual
assistance clause. As the Iranian threat - including from its
proxies in Yemen and Iraq - grows, is this the future of security
in the Middle East?

On today’s episode of Iran: the Latest, Sophia Yan is joined by
Miad Maleki, senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of
Democracies and former Pentagon lead sanctions architect. They
discuss how much control Tehran still has over its proxies,
growing internal dissent in Iran over the Strait of Hormuz deal,
and whether Tehran is stringing out the war to avoid further
protests.

Plus, how China enables Iran to bypass Western sanctions.
