I don't know if we've ever seen anything like this before.
It's completely unique, and it's perhaps a bit devastating for Trump himself, because he has come up with new threats, and in the end he ends up on a level that is so far-fetched that it takes the credibility away from the threats he comes up with.
So what should his enemies think then?
Once in a while, we have seen that Trump has come up with violent threats and quite clear deadlines, which Iran, apparently, has not cared so much about at all.
And every time, Trump has come up with solutions, and at the same time, he has increased the effort, that is, increased the threats even more.
It is, in a way, quite typical of Trump, because he walks very hard, and then he adapts after a while.
And this time, he pulled himself together again, fortunately, we can say.
Iran's plan requires, among other things, that Iran still has control over the Hormuz Strait, something that is totally out of date for the Arab countries that transport their oil through the Strait, and which is the US ally in the region.
Iran will continue to enrich uranium, they will have war compensation, and they will end sanctions, to name a few.
And we can perhaps say that Iran does the same as Trump.
They are going very hard, because there is a lot to change when the parties meet in Islamabad on Friday.
Det er faktisk ganske uklart.
Sånn som USA ser det, så er det det.
Men det er ikke Irans oppfatning.
De mener at de skal ha penger for å la fiender slippe igjennom.
Stredet har jo ikke vært stengt.
Iran har hele tiden voktet over stredet, kan du si.
Så de har latt sine venner kjøre igjennom, og de har også fraktet sin egen olja.
This previous weapon will, is it a victory for Iran?
It is difficult to say that there are any victories here, but I want to say that Iran, they experience at least themselves that they are a kind of victory here.
