In light of recent developments, the Middle East Institute is bringing you a breaking news briefing on the cease-fire between the United States, Israel, and Iran. Our webinar “Assessing the Consequences of the Iran War” will be rescheduled to a later date.
The US, Israel, and Iran agreed to a two-week temporary cease-fire on April 7, but its terms are vague and the deal fragile. Sporadic attacks continue, while Israel contends the agreement does not apply to its strikes against Lebanese Hizballah. Uncertainty about enforcement abounds, signaling that the truce may be unstable and short lived.
To discuss the cease-fire and assess the prospects for a durable conclusion to the Iran war, we will be joined by MEI Distinguished Diplomatic Fellow Ambassador Barbara A. Leaf and MEI Senior Fellow Alex Vatanka. This discussion will be moderated by MEI Vice President for Policy Dr. Ken Pollack.
