Larry Johnson, Zulfiqar Ali: EXPOSES Iran Walked Out 3 Times – Will Trump’s Iran DEAL Actually Hold??
by Transition Protocol [6-22-2026] Larry C. Johnson(bio).
Trump has signed a US–Iran Memorandum of Understanding at the G7, reopening the Strait of Hormuz on a 60-day toll-free window after the closure that cut roughly 20% of global oil supply since February. In this episode, former CIA analyst Larry Johnson and Zulfiqar Ali break down why the deal happened — the diesel-versus-jet-fuel crunch analysts warn is still coming — and the surprise broker behind it: Pakistan, whose Field Marshal Munir and Prime Minister mediated directly between Tehran and Washington.
We connect the signed MOU to the harder questions: why "open" doesn't mean oil flows tomorrow (ship servicing, damaged terminals, mines and insurance), what Iran pricing its oil to China in yuan signals for the dollar, and how a new Gulf security conversation is taking shape. Source-based claims in this episode are identified as such; we flag what is confirmed versus what remains developing.
