Yes. But. Donald Trump doesn't care about US foreign policy. As long as he is personally benefitting - in this case by market manipulation of oil markets, insider trading, and government weapons contracts to his family. Fred Trump was also a war profiteer. Intergenerational values.

As with the Reagan camp making a deal to deliver arms and money to Iran, as long as they rejected Carter administration hostage release negotiations and instead held the hostages until after the election. Which they did. Carter lost the election. Reagan delivered on his deal. The Iran-Contra scandal was put in action. Bill Barr cleaned up the mess of indictments and convictions, so that GHW Bush could have deniability.

Trump is Reagan writ large and writ vulgar. Republicans are the same.

… or the persuasion effort expended by the criminals in Foggy Bottom who convinced the South Vietnamese powers-that-were to delay talks w/ the NV until … a certain point of time… we know what happened there, don’t we?

Oh, this is soooo good. Trump doesn’t even know he has been played. He is playing hopscotch while Iran is playing three dimensional chess

Playing for keeps? Playing to win? Played to death?... I think the world really needs a love song

Remember how Iran played Jimmy Carter right up to the day he left office? They will do the same to dt.

As mentioned above, he and his family and friends are profiteering from this undeclared war.
