Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How Iranian women could shatter the regime's oppression
Q: Can I ask you as well, like what it kind of felt like to be under the modesty laws when you were growing up?
It was hard because the spirit of Iranian people is free, and we had to cover and follow strict laws despite wanting freedom.
How Iranian women could shatter the regime's oppression
Q: Can I ask you why you think the world is silent?
Their fight is a fashion, when it's trend, but the people in Iran are fighting against Islamic regime, which is not good for their image.
How Iranian women could shatter the regime's oppression
Q: What are you hearing just from where you are now?
The situation in Iran is really bad, and many people are risking their lives to fight against the regime.
Maduro's downfall: What's next for Venezuela?
Q: What would be the demands from the US administration?
If the demands are about US national interests in terms of trade, finance, and order, we might not see significant changes in the regime's repression, but there could be a gradual political transition depending on international pressure.
Maduro's downfall: What's next for Venezuela?
Q: If you're Venezuela, right, and a country like the United States does something like this, where they capture a leader, even if it's the leader of an oppressive dictatorship regime, which by no means am I defending, do they have legitimacy to respond?
International law and international legitimacy are two different things. There's an interplay between them, and whether or not the actions taken were considered legal or legitimate is a complex issue that depends on various factors such as the proximity of human rights abuses and responses to them.
