The Lawfare Podcast, Episode #81: Suzanne Maloney on Iran
All roads lead to Iran---at least in the news these days. There's the nuclear talks, which are coming to a head. There's common interests between the United States and the Islamic Republic in the conflict against ISIS and in the stabilization of Iraq. So I sat down yesterday with my Brookings colleague Suzanne Maloney to talk Iran. Suzanne is an Iran specialist at Brookings's Saban Center for Middle East Policy, where she is the force behind the excellent Iran@Saban blog.

All roads lead to Iran---at least in the news these days. There's the nuclear talks, which are coming to a head. There's common interests between the United States and the Islamic Republic in the conflict against ISIS and in the stabilization of Iraq. So I sat down yesterday with my Brookings colleague Suzanne Maloney to talk Iran. Suzanne is an Iran specialist at Brookings's Saban Center for Middle East Policy, where she is the force behind the excellent Iran@Saban blog. She served on the policy planning staff at the State Department and is the author of the forthcoming book, The Political Economy of Iran, and of this essay from last year, entitled "Iran Surprises Itself and the World."
