- Iran has been gripped by weeks of demonstrations and violent crackdowns sparked by the death of 22-year-old Iranian-Kurdish woman Jina Mahsa Amini while in police custody.
Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of people around the world, from Tokyo to Berlin to Vancouver, have rallied in recent weeks in solidarity with the country’s protest movement.
But is Iran’s hardline government listening?
DW Conflict Zone host Tim Sebastian spoke this week to Mohammad Marandi, professor at Tehran University and political analyst, who blamed the West for aggravating the situation.
Sebastian also spoke to Marandi about the stalled nuclear deal with Iran, as well as reports of Iranian drones being used by Russia in its war with Ukraine.

That was perhaps the most 'lively' interview I've ever seen on DW.
Yes. But his effectiveness is no better than when he was in the BBC.
We should watch interviews to learn something, not watch a sparring match.
Tim Sebastian has always exasperated me. He still does that, mostly. Very rarely, but sometimes he does, have good interviews.
Poor Old Tim!! To get such loads in his age!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Professor Mirandi sure schooled him
That exasperation is common among the enlightened community which is growing.
@UCZwnm0pL8bgjGPg8skMlA4A
Sorry. I disagree. BBC, PBS, NPR, DW, France24 are the gold standard for reporting.
They _do_ yield when genuine contradicting proof is demonstrated to them. I have experienced it myself.
Tim could not take it any longer.
He isnt in Dr Mirandi's league, Gay.
You can see Tim feeling embarrassed with himself after the interview
@@abdul-hadidadkhah1459 😆 🤣
@@ekrajraiify That's not embarrassment you're seeing.
You strangle people and ask why they are not breathing
Iran knows what it needs to do and will not be confused by this event on the nuclear deal.
"Tim, you're not in our league". Priceless 🤣
You misspelled "worthless".

‘Our league’ brutally murders young people, abducts and rapes them and throws them down from rooftops. Tim is proudly not in this league 😀
@@gaoxiaen1 Who paid you to reply under every comment and attack Marandi? xd

Dr Marandi won the debate.
with facts to his face, how did they allow this to air🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah.. if the west is so evil and controls all of the narrative, how did they allow this to air? If only that was a thought provoking question.
🤣👍🏼
makes you wonder, right?
The show DW did with Ali Abunimah on Palestine was taken offline. There's only so much truth DW can take before it resorts to censorship.
Us citizens believe their country is the entire world and that they try to bring peace....wtf.
Iran's mullahs believe that keeping a hold on power and stealing everything they get their hands on is more important than peoples lives, living standards, and liberty. The sinful theocracy is living high on the hog while the people suffer from their warped version of Islam that doesn't apply to itself.
tasss550 they know that their county "takes away" "piece" and not "bring" "peace."
they did bring longest period of relative peace for like 70 years
Why do you invite this guy? You know he eats you for breakfast 😂😂😂
He is a good gaslighter. Let's see him justify supplying Russia with drones to attack Ukrainian civilians.
I know what he eats for breakfast :)
More like he just flings metaphorical poop, instead of answering the questions XD
@@IngerWinkelmann what questions? there was not a single question there. They were just statements disguised as questions and all of them were the same: according to xy, iran=bad, do you agree? how should you answer "questions" like these iyo?
That was brutal, given it to him without oil Dr Marandi!!
I've not seen Prof. Marandi so heated before.
He gets like that when he lies

The lack of western obsession with the protests going on here in the west is also insane... could there be a connection? No, I cannot think of anything, o well...
@@todisagreeitsokay1837 Me neither.. I hope someone could make out the connection.. what's the connection between two totally unrelated things?

Of course someone with your background and everybody upvoting your comment would believe that emotional rambling is part of "destroying" someone.
DW had to release this, Otherwise they would just proven Marandis statements regarding credibility were right

Entertaining yes but nothing would ever get accomplished. A bit less then the current.

Marandi cooked him OMG 😭😭😭😭
The host couldn't say anything without having to read from his script. He was in trouble. Had to check his script many times to stay on track.

@@nickfeder - the interviewer NEEDS his script, which I don't disagree with, most interviewers do. But I do disagree with you because you made such an outlandish claim about the ear piece. You're better than that
@@nickfeder
The ear piece is to hear the questions from the host otherwise there would be nasty feedback.
Have two phones next to eachother on speaker and call on speaker and see what happens. So don't make ridiculas statements, there is a reason he is a proffesor!
Tim found himself in unfamiliar territory 😅😅
You're not the international community 💯😂😂
Time Sebastian will think twice to invite Professor Marandi again - Messed up West!
And so he should. What a rude clown.
Iran is a big country, bravo Iran...
Long live Iran againt Jokers and rioters....
Don't support the Iranian regime but you got to admit that interviewer got destroyed here to the point where he didn't know how to respond but to interrupt him all the time. 😅

I agree. I give DW credit for airing this interview, and for not deleting it like they did with Ali Abunimah's interview on Palestine/Israel. Apparently German media can stomach some truths, but not others.

Professor Marandi is just priceless! Super insightful inputs!!
This reporter is so unprofessional. He asks leading questions and makes points and then stops the interviewee from responding. It's called badgering.
Tim was destroyed and was angry he would hide under his desk if he could but Pro Marandi was right in his face 👍
😆 🤣
Excellent interview!
Stong interview and genuine answers by Mr. Marandi! He destroyed this racist and lying, presenter.
Mirandi avoided answering the questions, changed the subject multiple times, cut off the questions before they were asked and answered the questions that he wished were asked. That's lying, not winning.
@@gaoxiaen1 Sounds like you and i were watching two different interviews!
Mr. Marandi is as anti-west as he can get. Full of lies. But I wonder how many Iranians would agree with him.
@@gaoxiaen1
He answered every question, maybe the answers didn't match your narrative but he sure did answer them all and he did so very beutifully!

LOL.
@@dalisozulu1855 I have knowledge of body language and he did not lie. unlike the other man who did diverted and bounced the questions in purpose.

Dr Marandy is a legend. 🔥
This is about the dead girl, not about your hero babbling nonsense to avoid answering questions about it. So I guess you are saying: Prof. Marandi saying the girl just stood up then died is an ok answer?? yea ok..Prof. Marandi is a liar.
@@maximusvaliant8597 there is literally footage of that girl collapsing. He’s also talking about another article by Guardian that completely lied about another girl who does even go to the school mentioned in the paper and even died due to other causes. Do your research for 5 minutes at least before name calling. And he’s not my hero, that’s how you label others. He’s just pointing out fact after fact which make propagandised people upset
Dr Marandi did such a good job getting around (and even pointing out) all the misdirection and bullying tactics in order to make his points.
Decent dismantling. 👍
This interview is hotter than boiling water. Bravo to the professor of Iran 🇮🇷 western media have no moral value 😂😂😂😂😂😂
😆 🤣
Before this interview, I never knew that this man... Prof. Marandi exists... He's such an intellectual gigachad. He provides context, correcting the misinformation that going around, and even speaking the truths few are willing to speak.
If you honestly believe he’s providing correct information then I only can offer my deepest condolences for your ignorant intellect 👍
Good joke. 😂

Marandi completely destroyed Tim, and throughout the interview, Marandi maintained an upperhand while Tim was shrinking.
I think Tim and his likes needs more training to interview people like Marandi.
As an Iranian, I appreciate Dr. Marandi for shouting the truth and revealing the biggest hypocrites in the history! 🇮🇷
This debate was of a Professor vs dim witted student. Needles to day the professor shut the 🤡 down.
Thank you for this Interview! It was amazing to listen.
Dr. Marandi told the truth about the behavior of the West towards Iran. In this debate, he criticized the West without retouching
Wonderfull merandi....
Professor Marandi was great.

Tim: "I've given you a couple of minutes, 2-3 minutes"
Prof. Marandi: "You're interviewing me"
Does Tim not know how interviews work? I guess he's accustomed to talking over guests and throwing accusations, he no longer knows how interviews work..
Oh, and he gave 1 minute 11 seconds. Even here he can't help himself, he has to lie as soon as he opens his mouth.
Kinda his modus operandi. He let's the other talk more if they're of the same opinion.
u are wrong sided 🤣
your Tim is a bloody lier
An interview is a two way conversation. LOL.
Prof. Marandi owned this guy
great professor
No, he is only great manipulator. His arrogance and hate toward "west" is scary.
Nothing may have come about in the interview but it was refreshing in a way. To see that other view whether I agree with it or not.
This professor was a master manipulative piece of trash. They govt did raid that school and best ,10 pupils. He didn't answer the question at all he instead disputed the death of a girl which may or may not be true but what we know is they raised a school and he didn't even discuss it
Mr. Marandi gave a lesson that DW will never forget, like the one that he gave BBC before.
That's hilarious. This stooge couldn't answer a direct question without whataboutism. He, like the Iranian government, is nothing more than a fraud. Listening to his feminine whining is worse than electrocution.
Are you proud of him justifing and tell more lies
@@azadynow3256 What lies? The lies you tell your Western masters? 🤡
The lesson is that Iranians think that shouting louder and avoiding answering the questions means that they won. Miramdi is just a mouthpiece for a dictatorship.
