The Good, The Rights, and The Ugly

Will Iran ever stop taking hostages?

Since 2015, the Iranian regime has unjustly detained at least 30 individuals with foreign ties to use as leverage. In this episode, we examine the future of Iran’s hostage-taking. Will Iran’s June elections bring change? Will JCPOA’s meetings impact this practice?

Host Wade McElwain is joined by Ana Diamond, who was wrongly accused of espionage at the age of 19, and Drewery Dyke, Member of Salam for Democracy & Human Rights team and Fellow at the Foreign Policy Centre.
