  "textContent": "\nIn this Quick Take, **Ian Bremmer** warns that US military strikes on Iran are “looking increasingly imminent” as diplomacy appears to stall.\n\n* * *\n\nAnother round of talks is scheduled in Geneva, but Ian says Iran is “not willing to engage at all” on their ballistic missile program and refuses Washington’s demand that “none” of its nuclear enrichment be allowed. With US forces now in place, including a carrier group near Israel, he argues it would be costly and politically difficult to back down.\n\nDiplomatic engagement, Ian suggests, may be little more than “box checking” before strikes begin. He expects any initial action to be limited, and markets appear to believe escalation will be contained. But he cautions there is “always a tail risk,” especially if Iran or its proxies strike US or Israeli targets, which could trigger broader conflict.",
