Spotlight on Iran

 

Since September, Iran has been increasingly in the spotlight due to the nationwide anti-government protests sparked by Mahsa Amini’s death in custody, as well as Tehran’s provision of drones to Russia and the diplomatic stalemate over the nuclear issue. This event will bring in the perspectives of experts on the ground to contextualise these recent developments and explore Iran’s likely calculations, as well as prospects and implications at the domestic and international level.
