With no fall-back plan and risk of Israeli attack, Tehran in a bind over deal uncertainties | | AW

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

45% : Dozens of Iranian institutions vital to Iran's economy, including its central bank and national oil company, have been sanctioned since 2018 for "supporting terrorism or weapons proliferation". When asked about Iran's options if talks fail, Sherman said Tehran would likely "continue to circumvent sanctions and sell oil, largely to China, perhaps India and others".
39% : France, Britain and Germany, though not part of the US-Iran talks, have warned they would reimpose UN sanctions if no deal emerged quickly.
38% : "So that means they will come to an impasse, and that we will face the potential for war, which I don't think, quite frankly, President Trump looks forward to because he has campaigned as a peace president," she said.
