Krasnov is buying his way out of the war, lifting all sanctions against Iran, unfreezing Iranian money, (something that he soundly criticized President Obama for doing.
Iran promises it won't pursue a nuclear weapon, something it had already previously promised. Iran is only allowed to enrich uranium (wait for it} at the same % that had been agree to in the Obama agreement.
There are many more details that need to be worked out but Krasnov wants out of this war.
Krasnov can do yuuge press conference and proclaim that he went to war with Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open.
Krasnov can proclaim that he put restrictions on the enrichment of uranium, the same % that was in the Obama agreement that he tore up.
Krasnov has the MSM behind him, they can put lipstick on his pig of a war. Glory to God, once again Krasnov has created a problem and then solved it by surrendering and going back to the way things were before the war.
What is this now, war #9 that Krasnov has ended?

But again, shithole and comrades rarely tell truths. Anywho, Iran will keep their ingredients re: nuclear bomb making.
Meanwhile, the stock market will make a killing.

(23,855 posts)Its like in some video games, if you go into a battle or other situation with the wrong armor, weapons, potions or spells, or are simply at too low a level of experience, and you keep dying, you can abandon the attempt and revert to an earlier saved version of the game, before all the bad stuff happened (I did that last night because I didnt know how to deal with a cave filled with poison gas).
The only thing missing is a modified DeLorean.

(61,074 posts)It still will not be as good as the Obama deal as it is unlikely to have all the careful monitoring that a team led by Moniz developed. Not to mention, it would be as if someone banned. a Beatles song and then recorded it themselves and wanted credit for writing a classic. People will know it is the same "song".
It also does not start at the same level of trust ... and that wasn't very high on either side. Not to mention the Middle East is less stable than before.
One major problem is that we are not in control of ,"our side". We can't end the fighting in Lebanon, nor are we even talking about rebuilding villages intentionally razed. Consider that we have not progressed much on Gaza.
Years ago, it was said that fighting Afghanistan is what led to the Soviet Union falling apart. We are economically much stronger that the USSR was, but this "excursion" has weakened us economically, diplomatically and militarily. Even before this, long term damage was being done by destroying our educational and research sectors.

Imagine the Iranian leader saying, "we don't negotiate with terrorists."

(15,834 posts)Iran might demand reparations and an end to Israel's assault on Lebanon. That remains to be seen, but I highly doubt they'll simply agree to the US proposal.
They have been steadfast while Trump and his coterie of amateurs have engendered zero trust. Even if the American negotiators were expert professionals, the US position is tied to the unhinged and vascillating social media posts of the POtuS. It doesn't take much to trigger him into more wild threats and braggadocio.
The Trump regime seems more anxious for this to end than the hardliners in Iran. Hard to predict what will happen, but my guess is Krasnov will accept a deal not nearly as good as the one Obama brokered, then proclaim a total victory like the world has never seen before and claim credit for ending a war along with Iran's nuclear ambitions.
