Prof Marandi : Iran’s moral foreign policy

Mohammad Marandi joins us to discuss the future of the US-Iran conflict, the prospects for peace, and the rapidly changing balance of power in West Asia. In this interview we discuss: • Is peace finally within reach after months of conflict? • Why the end of the Gaza genocide may be essential for any lasting regional settlement. • The growing relationship between Iran and Saudi Arabia and its implications for the future of the Middle East. • How the war will influence Palestinian resistance and the broader Axis of Resistance. • Why Western analysts often interpret Iranian foreign policy through the lens of realpolitik while ignoring the moral and ideological dimensions that shape Tehran’s worldview. Marandi argues that the region is undergoing a historic transformation, with traditional Western influence facing unprecedented challenges and new regional alignments taking shape.
