About this listen
For two months, Iran has held the global economy hostage through a narrow stretch of water and the world's most powerful military can't seem to do anything about it.
With oil prices surpassing $100 a barrel; Trump's ceasefire extended for the fourth time; and negotiations deadlocked between US demands and Iranian hardliners who don't want to negotiate with Western officials, Chris Pleasance sits down with Daily Mail US political reporter Philip Nieto to untangle the mess.
Why was America so unprepared? Why can't the West simply take the strait by force? And is the US - long guarantor of the world's open sea lanes - watching its superpower status slip away in real time?
Host: Chris Pleasance
