A shaky Ceasefire Holds, but What’s Next for Iran?
Amanpour
Apr 11, 2026

A measured sigh of relief spread across the world this week after a ceasefire was announced in the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran. Still, the prospect of a sustained peace feels elusive. Christiane gets the view from a close European neighbour, Greece, with Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis. Then, as Iran and the U.S. prepare for negotiations in Pakistan, is America's strategy in the war working? Christiane hears from Iran experts Ray Takeyh and Suzanne Maloney. Plus, Professor of Global Studies at the University of Tehran Sasan Karimi give Christiane the view from inside Iran. Then, a portrait of American injustice takes center stage in Broadway with "The Fear of 13", dramatizing the life of Nick Yarris who served two decades in prison for a crime he did not commit. Christiane speaks to lead actor Adrien Brody and playwright Lindsey Ferrentino. Plus, as the U.S. embargo on Cuba grinds life in the island to a halt, Christiane's 1998 report from Havana on how decades of sanctions have impacted the most vulnerable there. And finally, as the Artemis II crew make their way back to Earth, a look back at Christiane's conversation with astronaut Michael Collins on his own journey to the moon.
