I also just think it's very interesting that the nuclear reacceleration, et cetera, that's happening.

That there's political will now.

And on that political will, his last point, which is like, what is the lesson that we keep learning is like strength matters.

Iran may end up in a situation in which it comes out stronger than it was two months ago, where it actually is collecting a toll, you know, getting a cash cow for the Strait of Hormuz.

So it's interesting is his point where it's like, OK, Europe, other parts of Asia, like what is the lesson that they learned from this?

And maybe the lesson is that sort of like biding your time and trying to be friendly and

Maybe that's not the answer.

Maybe stronger lines are the answer for global diplomacy right now.
