Former Israeli Negotiator EXPOSES Truth About US & Iran | Daniel Levy meets Ash Sarkar

Описание: Daniel Levy is a British-Israeli analyst, commentator, and former Israeli government negotiator whose biography reads like a map of the peace process's rise and fall. He served as an official negotiator under Prime Ministers Yitzhak Rabin and Ehud Barak. He went into those negotiations as a believer, but came out of them with a very different view of what Israel actually intended.

On Downstream this week, Ash Sarkar sat down with Daniel Levy at a pivotal moment in the region's history. A new Iran deal has just been announced, with shipping through the Strait of Hormuz set to reopen. The US-Iran ceasefire has been extended for 60 days, with a permanent end to the war the stated goal of upcoming talks. 

In this conversation, recorded as the ink is barely dry on the new framework, Daniel Levy picks apart what these peace negotiations are really about. What does Israel really want? Who blinked first, the US or Iran?  And how does a ceasefire announcement from the Oval Office differ fundamentally from long and lasting peace?
