The #US wants an exit. #Iran wants sanctions relief.
Both sides want to call it a win.

Could this deal put an end to the war, or are we just entering a new phase? #peacedeal

Direct war in the #SouthChinaSea remains unlikely. But Chinese vessels’ use of water cannons, dangerous maneuvers, barriers, and blockades against Philippine and Vietnamese vessels is raising the risk of escalation. More: https://t.co/dvtehLOaL7

Iran and the US are negotiating under live fire as efforts to finalize an agreement stall. Neither side appears to want a full-scale war, but without a deal, ongoing military friction risks spiraling into uncontrolled escalation. Latest overview: https://t.co/n2KxHGJ5Ya

Is #Nigeria’s violence primarily driven by religion?
The picture is far more complex.

@bbcworldservice used #ACLED data to show how violence affects both Christian and Muslim communities, while examining the different actors and drivers behind the country’s security crisis.

Watch the full interview on Peru's polarising election: https://t.co/RqNpeLtbR3

[ACLED @ACLEDINFO]

Peru's next president may win the election, but not the power to reshape the country.

A two-part Congress is returning for the first time in 30 years, but neither candidate has enough backing to make big changes. The result? #Peru could trade its political chaos for a standstill.

ACLED’s Senior Analyst Tiziano Breda spoke to @FRANCE24 about what this could mean for the country’s future.
