TED Talks Daily · The US bombed Iran. Now what? | TED Explains the World with Ian Bremmer · 23 Jun 2025 podcast

So interesting.

What do you think are some of the tactics that Israel is using to try to draw the US further into this with them?

So what about the broader Arab world?

How does this change geopolitics in the region?

Let's talk about some of the other international players in this.

I'm reading a lot of chatter about China and about their connection to Iran and what they might do next.

What are you hearing?

What do you think President Xi will say?

And what should we expect from China on this?

Fascinating.

Okay, so what about Russia?

You referred earlier to Dmitry Medvedev talking about potentially sending nukes to Iran.

You seem very confident that that will not happen, but I do wonder what Putin's take on this will be, and also if Putin might use this as an opportunity with eyes on Iran to exploit anything in Ukraine.

OK, so we also have to talk about what's happening in the US.

So obviously, one side of the House and the Senate is absolutely virulently against this.

There have been calls for impeachment, et cetera, et cetera.

What's more interesting to me is that the core of MAGA ideology is anti-war.

Now, that's not because of some kind of hippie ideals of peace, but it's really a kind of an extension of that isolationist, America first type of thinking.

But I think it's fair to say that this is not that.

So what I'm curious to hear from you is how do you think that Trump actually reassures his base that he hasn't betrayed them?
