Iran Speaks Out: Inside Tehran’s Response to Trump, Israel & War | Shane Smith Has Questions
As tensions between the United States, Israel, and Iran continue to escalate, Shane Smith travels to Tehran for a rare interview with Esmail Baghaei, spokesperson for Iran’s Foreign Ministry.
Esmail Baghaei has been in the news today, confirming that Iran is examining the U.S. response to Iran’s latest peace proposal, delivered through Pakistan.
As a potential deal to end hostilities hangs in the balance, we gave the Iranian government representative the opportunity to respond directly to accusations about its nuclear program, President Trump’s claims that Iran is “begging” for a deal, the Strait of Hormuz crisis, sanctions, regional escalation, and the growing fear of a wider war in the Middle East.
The spokesperson argues that Iran has been unfairly targeted by the U.S. and Israel for decades, blames the U.S. and Israel for escalating the conflict, and warns that continued military pressure could destabilize the entire region.
Shane pushes back throughout the interview, asking why Iran continues pursuing nuclear energy despite mounting international pressure, whether peace is realistically possible, and what the Iranian government believes Americans fundamentally misunderstand about Iran.Topics include:
Iran’s response to Trump and U.S. military pressure
Israel’s role in the conflict
The Strait of Hormuz and global energy fears
Nuclear weapons accusations
Sanctions and frozen Iranian assets
Regional escalation and Gulf states
The collapse of diplomacy after the JCPOA
Why Iran says it does not want war

You said it was our song, that I'd be your Little Bird
How right you were,
I'm still chasing the life I've made in my head, and you've hit that ditch on the way to Damascus
I was a different kind that you'd never known, but I'm headed east to find the answers
There were a thousand ways to tell me you loved me, but you lost the words
I know you still hear my songs, your Little Bird
