Summary

Both President Trump and Secretary Rubio are yet to respond to Iran’s latest proposal, but both have expressed that they feel it falls short saying they are 'dissatisfied'. President Trump has also said that the government in Tehran is in a 'state of collapse', with infighting from fractured hardliners making it difficult to reach any sort of deal. Meanwhile, the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz continues to damage Iran economically, which in the end could cause the greatest change in the country. FOX’s John Saucier speaks with Janatan Sayeh, research analyst at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies focused on Iranian domestic affairs and the Islamic Republic’s regional malign influence, who says the United States needs to continue its maximum pressure plan.
