Roqe Ep. 447 - Memorandom of Undermining - Shayan Sami'i, Picasso Moin, Kiarash Kian

IRAN RISES - MEMORANDUM OF UNDERMINING | Ep.447 Many Iranians woke up today with a feeling they never expected to have. Betrayal. In this episode of Roqe, Jian Ghomeshi is joined by Shayan Samii, Picasso Moin, and Kiarash Kian to examine the new Memorandum of Understanding between the Trump administration and the Islamic Republic - a deal that could lead to sanctions relief, expanded oil exports, the unfreezing of assets, and a reported reconstruction and investment package worth as much as $300 billion. Is this a diplomatic breakthrough? Or a lifeline for a regime that millions of Iranians have spent decades opposing? The panel discusses the implications of the agreement, the future of the opposition movement, whether the deal strengthens the Islamic Republic at a critical moment, and why so many Iranians are reacting with shock, disappointment, and anger. The conversation also turns to Team Melli and the FIFA World Cup, exploring whether Iran's national football team can be separated from the regime that governs the country, and why all three panelists have chosen not to support Team Melli during this tournament. Plus Jian's opening essay: "WE KNOW WHERE THE $300 BILLION WON'T GO." Guests: • Shayan Samii • Picasso Moin • Kiarash Kian Host: Jian Ghomeshi Sponsored by: • Stellar Law • Quasar Homes
