My conversation with @BeckyCNN on #Iran's aim to deter a US attack by threatening retaliation, regional conflict and disrupting energy transit.
ā€œThe Iranian tactic is to try to convince the United States that war is going to be costly,ā€ @Vali_Nasr weighs in on the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and the U.S. military buildup — all happening against the backdrop of diplomatic talks.
