President Rouhani: One Year On
The Frontline club hosted a panel to reflect on one year of President Rouhani in power, his accomplishments and legacies, both domestic and international. The discussion also focused on how the US pulling out of the Iran nuclear deal could upend Rouhani because he campaigned heavily on its ability to bring prosperity to the Iranian people. The event was chaired by Azadeh Moaveni, lecturer in journalism at New York University in London and featured Kasra Naji, special correspondent for BBC Persian; Saeed Kamali Dehghan, staff journalist with the Guardian; Charlotte Phillips, lawyer and freelance writer & Richard Ratcliffe who’s wife has been detained in Iran since 2016
