Save Its Head or Save Its Face? Iran’s Final Gamble | Dr. Nazee Moinian

from Beyond the Summit with Amir Golshani Hosted by Amir Golshani

In this high stakes episode of Beyond the Summit, host Amir Golshani sits down with Dr. Nazee Moinian, a diplomat, PhD scholar, and adjunct fellow at the Middle East Institute, to dissect a regime in its final bind. From the "unthinkable" possibility of a nuclear dirty bomb to the "Lionesses" of Gen Z leading a new revolution, this is a masterclass in the cold reality of Middle Eastern geopolitics. Dr. Moinian reveals why she’s shifted from supporting diplomacy to advocating for a "Reagan-style" blueprint of internal pressure, explaining why Tehran must now choose between saving its head or saving its face. If you want to understand why the "blockading of the blockade" has left the regime with no way out, this conversation is your front-row seat to the endgame.
