One man's decision on the Iran Deal in the US has created uncertainty and fault lines in Europe and the Near East. The last time, President Trump's poker game with another nuclear aspirant, North Korea, appears to have borne fruit. The mood noises from Kim Jong-un were suddenly conciliatory and positive and tonight, the US rejoices in the release of three imprisoned US citizens from North Korean prison and their anticipated arrival back in the US. Will the same strategy work with Iran? Or is the longer lasting legacy be that whilst the President has kept his election promise, the past promises made by the US as a nation are now less reliable.
A future Brexit could now have another unexpected consequence. The EU satellite navigation system being built, called Galileo, is still in construction. However, on Brexit, it could be that the UK does not have access to the highly accurate military navigation systems of Galileo. 'We'll just build our own!" is one touted solution. Feasible, but expensive.
Jane and I spent an afternoon with one of our authors on the final details of their manuscript.
