Iran

Iran has a new hardline leader and has begun the process of enriching uranium metal, which could help it develop a nuclear weapon. President Biden hopes to revive the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, but how realistic is that after President Trump withdrew from it and spent four years implementing harsh sanctions on Iran? Those sanctions pushed Iran toward authoritarianism and anti-Americanism, says Middle East analyst Trita Parsi. He’s executive vice president at the Quincy Institute and author of several books on the Iran nuclear deal. (AP Photo/Vahid Salemi)
