In a special episode of TED Explains the World, Helen Walters interviews geopolitical expert Ian Bremmer about the hypothetical scenario of the U.S. bombing Iranian nuclear sites in June 2025. Bremmer explains the potential reasons behind such an attack, the roles of Israel, China, and Russia, and the possible responses from Iran.

Bremmer also assesses the positions and potential actions of other international players, including China and Russia, and analyzes the domestic political implications within the U.S. regarding Trump's base and the upcoming NATO summit.
