Iran, the US and Israel: who really won?
Our chief international correspondent, Lyse Doucet, on the Iran deal.
The US and Iran have agreed a deal to end the war, which – if all goes to plan – will be signed at a ceremony in Switzerland on Friday.
But the agreement remains shrouded in mystery, and major questions remain about whether both sides can reach a long-term peace deal.
We speak to the BBC’s chief international correspondent, Lyse Doucet, about how the past few months have affected the global economy, the region, Iran’s nuclear capabilities, its regime and its people.
