For @CarnegieEndow I wrote about the perils of nuclear ambiguity, and what Iran (and the world) can learn from the saga of Iraq's nuclear program. TLDR: playing political football with international oversight rarely ends well for anyone: carnegieendowment.org/research/2024/…

Omani FM to news editors: "the war's true objective was to weaken Iran, reshape the region, and advance the normalization process," to "weaken any country... that supports the Palestinian statehood project. " @OmanEPress omandaily.om/ampArticle/119…

Part of my interview with @BeirutCalling for @CarnegieMEC discussing how segments of the nuclear policy community, especially those not focused on Iran, overlooked clear signs we were moving toward war as early as January.

That is not even half of the stockpile of 60%....Where is the rest? Presumably, there was some 60% at Natanz when it was struck in June. Some could still be at Fordow, but there were 8 days between the Israeli attack & the US strike on that facility, so possible it was moved.

I spent most of my career before becoming a host as a conflict reporter. I’m seeing many of the familiar misunderstandings and confusion emerge that have some unique 2026 qualities. 1. Propaganda is rife. All governments engage in it. That’s why painstaking original reporting is so important. This is now worse with AI and the infotainment industrial complex. 2. Nothing beats having reporters on the ground to witness things first hand. Nothing. 3. Expertise matters. These issues are complicated and a hot take from your armchair pundit is probably useless. There are now more of them than ever. 4. People are being killed. Everyday. War is bloody and brutal. It’s not a video game or a movie. Anyone trying to portray it as such is lying. 5. There are few organizations now that have the resources to do the hard work of comprehensive boots in the region war reporting. Support them. @nytimes @CNN @AP @Reuters @WSJ @NPR @BBCNews @guardian @thetimes and others. 6. Governments see information as part of the battlefield. It’s why they try and control it and shape it.

The White House apparently did not anticipate that starting a war with Iran would cause oil prices to rise. I wonder what else they may not have anticipated. politico.com/news/2026/03/0…

🧵 on Iran's coordinated attempts at outreach to its neighbors, which are going over like a lead balloon, at least from the messages I'm getting Araghchi also called the Qatari FM, in his first call with a Gulf official; Qatari readout of the call was very harsh
Nicole Grajewski@NicoleGrajewski

Ghalibaf offers outreach to Iran’s neighbors: “We tell friendly, brotherly, and neighboring countries that our missile and drone capabilities are solely for legitimate defense against American and Zionist aggressors.”

Senior Trump admin official again says he does not understand why Iran would not accept offer of free nuclear fuel from the United States, and evidently has still not consulted with any of the numerous experts who could have explained why.

Drone strike on Kuwait's airport, a luxury hotel on fire after a missile interception in Dubai, reports of tankers avoiding the Strait of Hormuz For Gulf states there is a big difference between absorbing attacks on American bases, and direct attacks on their own infrastructure The more Iran widens its target set in the GCC, the more likely it is that Gulf countries are going to be pushed into closer alignment with the United States. They strongly opposed the war before it began, but we're getting to a point where the die is cast

In last year's US-Iran dialogue as well as the current ongoing talks, Oman has moved beyond its traditional role of facilitating diplomacy and become far more directly involved in mediating, making use of its trusted status with both parties as an impartial third party.
Badr Albusaidi - بدر البوسعيدي@badralbusaidi

Good to sit down with Margaret Brennan on Face the Nation to explain that a peace agreement between the US and Iran is now within reach. No nuclear weapons. Not ever. Zero stockpiling. Comprehensive verification. Peacefully and permanently. Let’s support the negotiators in closing the deal.
