The Germans are not ready yet to kind of take over that American deterrent role in terms of the Troo presence in Germany, that they're years away, at the very least of being able to handle that.

And this is Iran at the latest. It's Wednesday, 6th of May, 2026. It's 68 days since the war began and 29 days since the ceasefire was declared. And we might be on the cusp of the war ending for real. So our first top story today is that the United States and Iran are apparently close to agreeing a deal. That's according to Axios. Now, this is based on a one page memorandum that apparently would require Iran to pause its nuclear enrichment, while the US Would agree to release billions of dollars in frozen Iranian assets, and then both sides would allow free passage for ships through the Strait of Hormuz, which we'll be getting onto in a bit more detail later. This is apparently 14 point memorandum of understanding. It's not clear how much that aligns with the 14 point proposal that the Iranians sent to the Americans over the week. Nothing's been agreed yet, but we're having sources from Pakistan saying that it will close very soon, that we're getting close and the oil markets are reacting with Brent crude dropping more than 5% to a two week low of $104 a barrel. We have Marco Rubio potentially hinting something along these lines yesterday, didn't we, Roland?
