Five Scenarios for the End of the War in Iran

As uncertainty surrounding Washington's strategy in the war with Iran intensifies, Axios presents five possible scenarios for how the conflict could end.

1. Ceasefire through negotiation and a new nuclear agreement: Halting the Iranian nuclear program is a key goal. Shortly before the war broke out, the United States and Iran held indirect talks in Geneva.

2. The 'Venezuela model': The US arrests a leader and cooperates with a successor. Trump has hinted that Mojtaba Khamenei may not remain in power.

3. Popular uprising: The possibility of internal collapse is not excluded, given the demonstrations and the economic crisis.

4. Special forces operation: Sending special forces to seize or destroy the nuclear stockpile.

5. US withdrawal: Trump announces victory and withdraws the US, regardless of the political situation in Iran.

According to Axios, just as the war started suddenly, so could it end.
