FT: Vavo approach faltered in Trump's Iran effort
The article explains that the "FAVO" doctrine, which means "Try to manipulate and you will discover," failed to achieve its goals against Iran, despite being successful in Venezuela where it led to the arrest of President Nicolás Maduro. The effects of this doctrine appeared negatively after the American and Israeli escalation in February, which resulted in the killing of Iran's Supreme Leader and members of his regime. However, the current reality shows that Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz and is demanding new concessions, including reparations and the withdrawal of American forces, indicating that Trump’s strategy failed to shift the balance of power. Despite statements claiming victory, developments suggest that the Trump administration has failed to tighten control over the region, and the "FAVO" doctrine has demonstrated its weakness in facing Iran.
