China to the Rescue? Why Only Beijing May Be Able To End the Iran War (opens the original)
Read excerpt

If you’ve followed my interviews, you know I’ve been warning about the high likelihood of a third round of the war – one that would almost certainly be far more intense than the previous two. I’ve also argued that, given Trump’s erroneous reading of the current balance, perhaps the only diplomatic wildcard that could pull us back from this looming disaster is Beijing deciding to step in and force a
Trump’s Saudi Nuclear Agreement May Prolong the Iran War (opens the original)

by Trita Parsi | Sep 4, 2026 | 0 comments Reprinted with permission from Trita Parsi’s Substack. A final deal between the United States and Iran is slipping further out of reach. Since the Memorandum of Understanding collapsed in July, the prospects for reviving it have deteriorated by the day.

I have been stunned by the number of officials from a wide variety of countries who, while hardly favoring Iran or feeling much empathy for the Islamic Republic, have privately expressed to me a huge sigh of relief over Tehran’s success in thwarting US-Israeli aggression. Given that many of these officials represent countries squarely in the US camp and have deep problems with the Islamic Republic,
Has Trump Turned the Tables on Iran – or Is Another Round of War Coming? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
by Trita Parsi | Aug 21, 2026 | 0 comments Reprinted with permission from Trita Parsi’s Substack. The Trump administration believes it has turned the tables on Iran. Washington assesses that the rerouting of maritime traffic through the Omani corridor, combined with a global shift away from Persian Gulf oil, has reduced the effectiveness of Tehran’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz. At the same time, the U.S. blockade has sharply constrained Iran’s ability to sell its oil. The result, in Washingt
