A Mother’s Day task?

Trump’s ‘Maximum Pressure’ Iran Policy Is Getting Results
*Tallha Abdulrazaq* *Security, Middle East* Rather than making it clear that Tehran is really feeling the sting of the Trump administration’s “maximum pressure” campaign designed to permanently curb the Iranians’ nuclear weapons ambitions, Iran is instead putting on a show of force. Now is not the time to back down. When faced with the prospect of defeat and heavy losses, most states resort to bombast and bravado to give off the impression that they are a far greater threat than they are.

Coronavirus As the Spark for a U.S.-North Korea Nuclear Deal?
*Devin Stewart* *Security, Asia* "Perhaps the COVID crisis could do some good by creating political cover (or an excuse) for the United States to offer sanctions relief to North Korea out of humanitarian concern.
