President Donald Trump insisted that freedom of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz be part of any deal to end the Middle East war and escalated threats to obliterate key Iranian infrastructure if his terms aren’t met before a Tuesday deadline.
Attacking civilian infrastructure is barred by the Geneva Conventions, but Trump said he was “not at all” concerned about committing war crimes.

Today’s guests:
Wolf von Rotberg, J Safra Sarasin, Equity Strategist; Azadeh Zamirirad, German Institute for International and Security Affairs, Africa and Middle East Research Head.
