Summary

US Special Envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner were in Oman this past week to negotiate a revised nuclear agreement with Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi, amidst the largest US naval buildup in the region since Operation Midnight Hammer. While nuclear capabilities took center stage, other topics such as Iran’s ballistic missile program and support for Hamas, remained largely undiscussed, leaving unanswered questions about the stability of the region. FOX News London-based Correspondent Jonathan Savage joins to discuss the main takeaways from Friday’s negotiations, explaining the historical background that led up to the talks and what they mean for the future of the middle east - and the U.S. Later, Administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Dr. Mehmet Oz weighs in on the true scale of Medicaid fraud in the U.S. healthcare system.

amid escalating threats. There's a number of things that Iran have on the table here.

1:13.4
