Eye for Iran | Ep 1 | The race to replace Raisi: Will Iran's election shake things up?

From Iran International comes the 'Eye for Iran' podcast, a weekly show that will take listeners beyond the headlines, deep into the Iran stories that matter most. With compelling interviews, expert analysis and high-impact investigations, host Negar Mojtahedi examines the latest developments in and around Iran. In the first episode of ‘Eye for Iran,' Negar speaks with Jason Brodsky, the policy director of United Against Nuclear Iran and Behnam Ben Taleblu, a Senior Fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD) about the significance of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi’s death and how the event is perceived by the power brokers of Iran. ‘Eye for Iran’ also looks into the political heavyweights throwing their names into the mix ahead of the election, their backgrounds and examines how the Guardian Council will make its final decision on who gets to run amid succession.
