15 Temmuz 2026France 24

The ongoing conflict between the US and Iran appears to be fueled by a belief on both sides that sustained hostilities provide them with better negotiation leverage. Analyst Carrie Lee from the German Marshall Fund of the US discusses this cyclical pattern of war and diplomacy.
The article highlights the complexities of the US-Iran relationship and the reasons behind the recurring tensions.
The US-Iran relationship has been fraught with tension for decades, marked by periods of conflict and attempts at diplomacy. The current environment is characterized by heightened military posturing and a lack of effective communication channels, which further entrenches the cycle of conflict and negotiation.
The cyclical nature of the US-Iran conflict underscores a fundamental misunderstanding of negotiation dynamics. Both parties may be trapped in a zero-sum mindset, where each believes that escalating tensions will yield better outcomes at the negotiating table.
