The proposed peace deal between the US and Iran w/ the University of Auckland's Chris Ogden: 16th June, 2026

The Trump Administration and United States President Trump has announced a peace deal between the US and Iran, bringing over 100 days of conflict to a potential close. The deal focuses, however, on the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, begging the question of whether this peace comes as a strategic loss for the US, with little changing from the status quo pre-conflict. 

Additionally, the conflict has further eroded the standing of and trust in the United States globally, furthering their precarious position.

Tuesday Wire host Alex spoke with Associate Professor in Global Studies at the University od Auckland, Chris Ogden, about the peace deal and what might come next.
