The Summit
Iran's president flew into his enemy's city on his enemy's visas. Iraq turned the Iranian planes away at dawn. This is the war's Yalta.
Tuesday, September 22. Yesterday this channel told you the principals were moving into place for what follows the war. Today that movement has an address. The 81st UN General Assembly opens its high-level week this morning in New York, close to 130 heads of state inside a perimeter the Coast Guard and the NYPD spent the weekend welding shut. Warships on the rivers. Dive teams under the bridges. Trump takes the podium in the morning session.
Read the guest list the way a banker reads a signature page. The president of Iran is flying in. The Gulf's six rulers are already in. Iraq's prime minister is in, and met the US Secretary of State before the microphones warmed up. China's president lands Thursday. And the US Treasury's worldwide deadline on Iranian aviation falls tomorrow, while every one of them is still in town.
Wars do not end at podiums. They end in the side meetings, and this week put every side meeting that matters inside the same few streets of Manhattan. The Precipice asked what the edge looks like. This is what the far side of it looks like: everyone with a claim on the ending, summoned to one place, in the same week the deadlines land.
