US, Iran ‘fighting their way to the negotiating table’, retired US general says
Mark Kimmitt, a retired US general and former diplomat, tells Al Jazeera the current posturing by the United States and Iran is an old playbook. “It’s a classic way of fighting your way to the negotiating table,” he said. “Both sides want to demonstrate that they’re capable of fighting and they’re willing to fight, but down deep both sides want to negotiate.” Kimmitt predicted over the next few days, “We’re going to see who blinks first.” “They may not want peace right now, and certainly they don’t want the terms that are being offered by both sides,” he added. “But my guess is that there will be an extension of the ceasefire.” Subscribe to our channel: http://bit.ly/AJSubscribe Follow us on X: https://twitter.com/AJEnglish Find us on Facebook: https://ift.tt/S6nvdcZ Check our website: https://ift.tt/rtfLkg7 Check out our Instagram page: https://ift.tt/Z7kXLpY Download AJE Mobile App: https://ift.tt/WIbify7 #DonaldTrump #US #Pakistan #Iran #USIranTalks #USIranCeasefire #Israel #USIsraelWarOnIran #IranWar #IranConflict #IRGC #RegimeChange #MiddleEast #OperationEpicFury #AlJazeeraEnglish
