I think the most important factor there is not us and not the Israelis and not the Iranians, but the Europeans. If in less than six months time, you don't have the Europeans triggering this tool that expires on October 18th, 2025, which is snapback, if you don't have that, then it's likely you have one of two scenarios, either a limited strike or a limited deal in place.

I can't guess which one is more 51-49 at this moment, but I would say both the Iranians and the Americans have an interest in kind of delaying because they don't like their exit options for political reasons. I certainly think our exit options, you know, ramping up pressure is much more attractive than the regime's exit option, which is having to go full speed for a nuclear weapon.

But I think politically, there is less of an appetite for entertaining a cycle of violence and conflict in Washington at the moment. And therefore, despite me saying 51-49 deal, limited strike, if no snapback, I think both sides could find a way to limp along and continue talks despite both of them not budging on their red lines. Okay.
