All right, Alexander, we are here once again with the great Jim Webb,

joining us on the Duran for another show.

Jim Webb, where peak people follow your work?

Best place to find me is on X.

It's a name you see on the screen, James Webb underscore 16.

That's my handle.

Best place to find me.

Guys, really appreciate you have to be back.

It's always a treat to talk with you and try and explain what the heck is going on in my neck of the woods over here in the U.S. Let's try to figure it out. Guys, I have the link to Jim Webb's X in the description box down below, and I will also add it as

a pin comment as well, so you can find that link as a pinned comment.

Alexander, Jim, let's discuss what's happening with U.S. President Trump or Dr. Trump.

Anyway, let's get into it.

Indeed, let's indeed, because there's no one better to unpack all of this,

or at least try to unpack one of this with, than with Jim,

because Jim's obviously got both the military knowledge, the background,

and he's also been involved in the politics, the world of politics

and decision-making and policy in Washington, because it's all becoming extremely complicated

and extremely strange. So on the 11th of April, the United States and Iran meet at a very high level, I think high than they've ever done,

at least in recent years, for negotiations in Islamabad. The negotiations last 20 hours,

which does not seem to me a particularly long time, by the way, given how complex the issues are.

There's confirmation that there is no agreement.

I don't know why anybody would expect an agreement for one meeting over a problem of this kind.
