In this #QuickTake, @ianbremmer says the US and Iran may not trust each other, but both sides understand that more military strikes are unlikely to produce a path to peace.
The question is whether they can return to a ceasefire before Iran’s leverage over the Strait of Hormuz diminishes.
7 prime ministers. 10 years.
Andy Burnham became the UK's new leader, and he's promising to be a "circuit breaker" for a system he says has been heading in the wrong direction. But first, he'll need to last longer than his predecessors.
Between 1979 and 2010, the UK had four prime ministers over 31 years. In the last four years alone, it has had five.
In his latest #QuickTake, @ianbremmer argues that the war between the United States and Iran has entered a more dangerous phase, with both sides demonstrating they can sustain military and economic pressure without forcing the other to back down.
The question is, will this standoff bring them back to the table before the conflict escalates further?

For years, Russia has bet that time is on its side. But Ukraine's expanding drone campaign is forcing the Kremlin to defend territory once thought untouchable.
@ianbremmer explains what this new phase of the conflict means for Ukraine, Russia, and the West. #gzeroworld
"Making President Trump change his mind was one problem. Keeping him there is another."
Ukraine's former foreign minister Dmytro Kuleba tells Ian Bremmer why Kyiv sees a real shift in Washington—but isn't taking it for granted. #gzeroworld
Why didn't China qualify for the World Cup?
A top-down system that can't produce street-level talent is all part of the answer. The kind of environment that produced Messi and Zidane can't be engineered from above.

In this episode of #GZEROEurope, @carlbildt reflects on the NATO summit in Ankara and why Europe is treating the outcome as a success mainly because it avoided open controversy.
The Iran ceasefire is effectively over, but that doesn't mean all-out war is here.
In #askian, @ianbremmer explains why neither Washington nor Tehran can get what it wants and why the Strait of Hormuz remains at the center of the conflict.
Forget the action on the pitch for a minute. What if World Cup teams competed on clean energy instead of goals?
We built a "green World Cup" — ranking the final eight nations by the share of their electricity generated from renewable sources. Norway leads with 99%. Morocco sits at 24%. Which country surprised you most?
Has Iran's regime emerged from the war more emboldened than before? Yeganeh Torbati explains how Tehran turned survival into a political victory, gaining leverage abroad even as it faces deep economic problems and public frustration at home. #gzeroworld
In #QuickTake, @ianbremmer says Lindsey Graham's relationship with Trump was more complicated than simple loyalty. Graham knew who Trump was, opposed him, returned to him, and believed access to the president was the way to make a difference.
Ukraine is bringing the war to Russia, but can it actually change the course of the conflict?
