The U.S. and Iran reached a memorandum of understanding on Sunday extending the ceasefire by 60 days. It is set to be formally signed in Geneva on Friday. The text of the agreement has not yet been released, but Iran has agreed to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, while the U.S. will lift its naval blockade. According to Iran, the deal calls for a permanent and immediate cessation of hostilities on all fronts, including in Lebanon. But Israel, which is not a party to the agreement, says it plans to keep troops in parts of southern Lebanon. \u201cThe Israelis are trying to destroy this deal, and they will continue to try,\u201d says Trita Parsi, executive vice president of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. \u201cIt will require persistent, consistent pressure by Trump on the Israelis in order to hold them back.\u201d<\/p>\n

We also discuss how The Free Press<\/em>, founded by Bari Weiss, published an article last week claiming the State Department had opened a probe into Parsi that could lead to his deportation. The State Department issued a statement just hours later claiming that it had \u201cno plans to revoke the green card of Mr. Parsi at this time.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI do believe that there were elements inside the State Department that wanted to move in this direction,\u201d says Parsi. \u201cThey thought that this hit piece would help move things forward, but I think, frankly, it backfired.\u201d<\/p>\n
