Roqe Ep.379 - Did Trump Drop the Ball? - Ari Aramesh, Bijan Kian
Update: 2025-07-03
Description
Just weeks ago, the world watched as tensions between Israel and Iran surged and the Iranian people appeared to be approaching a pivotal moment. The conditions for an uprising were aligning.
Then came a ceasefire.
Then… Trump’s shift - signalling a willingness to work with the same Islamic Republic regime he once vowed to crush.
So: Did Trump blow a real opportunity for change?
Jian Ghomeshi hosts a passionate, high-level panel with legal analyst and political commentator Ari Aramesh, and former U.S. senior official Bijan Kian, to tackle the hard questions:
Did the Trump pivot deflate the movement for freedom in Iran?
Was there ever a plan to follow through?
What does this mean for Iranians both inside and outside the country?
Why does the regime seem untouched, emboldened even?
A raw and revealing discussion about power, pressure, and the moment that may have slipped away.
