Trump ally hints at America’s plan for Iran

Donald Trump has threatened the Iranian regime with 'very strong action' if it hangs protesters amid a wave of demonstrations and riots sweeping the Islamic Republic. Henry Riley hears from Dr Andrew Peek (00:00), who was the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Iran and Iraq at the US State Department under Donald Trump between 2017 and 2019. Dr Peek explains what the President means when he says ‘help is on the way’ and what to expect in Iran over the coming days and months. Caller Steve (07:41), however, warns Iranian protesters that 'a saviour isn't about to come from over the hill' and the conflict will inevitably be 'bloody'. Caller Adam (11:48) joins the programme for a big ding-dong argument, as he insists sanctions on Iran should be lifted and we should 'stop banging on about other people's countries'.
