Iran and Nuclear

quote

The leaders that are in Tehran now, or the direction in which Tehran is moving politically, is actually going to make negotiations a lot more difficult...it's the Supreme Leader who has the final say on nuclear questions. So at moment, we now have a new supreme leader, the son of the old one...We don't know what his position is on the nuclear file. Though we do know that he historically has been a little bit more, let's say, hardline on some issues. And it seems like there is more and more of a role to play for the IRGC, for the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, which are much more on the hardline of the spectrum within the Iranian government. So ... the signs point to the fact that the Trump administration might have a much more challenging interlocutors than they did before the war."
