What to Expect From U.S., Iran Talks Friday in Oman?
Bloomberg's Becca Wasser & Wayne Sanders state they are not optimistic when discussing what they expect from the US and Iran when both countries speak Friday in Oman. They suggest it seems both sides are unclear about what the negotiations are on, and what Iran makes of the US naval ship off its coast. Becca, a CNAS adjunct senior fellow, and Wayne speak with Joe Mathieu on the late edition of Bloomberg's "Balance of Power."
