Jake Sullivan
Former US National Security Advisor (Biden admin) · Harvard Kennedy School (Kissinger professor)
“For me, the most likely case scenario is that the Strait does reopen, the blockade does end, Iran gets access to an economic windfall, they start a nuclear negotiation and that nuclear negotiation just kind of goes on indefinitely.”
“Iran has come out a big winner in this. And I think the United States has come out on the losing end.”
