The Assassination of Iran's Top Nuclear Scientist

Season 2020 Episode 3109 | 3m 00s

Even before assuming office, President-elect Joe Biden faces major issues on the global stage. Most immediate is the Thanksgiving weekend assassination of Iran’s top nuclear scientist, which could thwart Biden’s aim to bring the U.S. back into the Iran nuclear deal. The EU called the assassination criminal and Iranian hardliners have sworn revenge. Ellie Geranmayeh joins the show to discuss.
