As Vice President JD Vance and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas
Araghchi lock down a 60-day roadmap to end the war, Tehran has
walked away with immediate waivers on its oil and petrochemical
exports. Venetia Rainey and Roland Oliphant go behind the scenes
at the high-stakes negotiations in Switzerland, including nuclear
negotiations and the rumors of an Iranian walkout.

Meanwhile, the fallout from Washington’s fury with his closest
European allies over their Iran war “betrayal” has ramped up
after Donald Trump publicly rebuked Italy’s Giorgia Meloni over
her refusal to help him. They also analyse the resignation of
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and how his indecision over
allowing the US to use UK bases to strike Iran was indicative of
his premiership’s failings.

Plus, how the Iranian football team’s gritty 0-0 World Cup draw
against Belgium turned into a propaganda stunt for the regime to
invoke the ghosts of the schoolchildren killed in Minab at the
start of the war.
