While all major international leaders are meeting in New York for the UN summit to talk about the climate, the case of Iran is also at the heart of the debate.
This is the event we are watching. A handshake between Donald Trump and Hassan Rohani? It would be a first since the Iranian revolution, 40 years ago.
The Iranian does not say no, but he refuses that it is just for the photo.
The Iranians are bazaar aces, they even bargain with a gun on the temple because they know that Donald Trump has a pluggun. They know that he is in the election campaign, not in the military campaign and that he will not fight for the king of Arabia.
The American has evidence that Iran has bombed the Saudi oil site but he will not use it to justify military reprisals. The barrel outbreak last week proved that it would cost too much.
Similarly, the French who rolled out the red carpet to the Iranian minister in Biarritz avoid stressing that their peace efforts have been rewarded by a shelling of drones and missiles.
Welcome to the asymmetrical war, that of the hypocrites, the one that one does without ever declaring it, looking elsewhere.
And farewell to the dreams of greatness of Mohamed Ben Salman. He lost the war in Yemen, he lost his face. He is released by the emirates who are too afraid to take drones in their glass towers. Donald Trump had staked big on MBS which was to rid the region of fanatics and sign peace with Israel. The prince has missed everything, the king is naked.
Iranians are sore but they control the Middle East bazaar. It is with them that America will have to haggle, tonight or another time.
