Evelyn Farkas, executive director of the McCain Institute, said that the US may incentivize further talks with Iran by unfreezing some assets seized during the course of the conflict after a short-term deal is signed to extend a ceasefire and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Talking with French President Emmanuel Macron ahead of the G7 summit, President Trump told reporters that his attention is also turning back to Russia and Ukraine now that that short-term deal with Iran is done. Farkas said Russians have never been weaker — militarily, economically, and politically — than they are now. (Source: Bloomberg)
