This is a wonderful interview that Pepe Escobar gave about his recent stay in Iran. It includes developing plans for the North-South corridor which is a BRICS alternative to the Suez Canal. It is faster, cheaper and in no danger of being sanctioned.
He also discusses Iran’s ultimate political card to play against the West; the blocking of the Strait of Hormuz which would stop most international trade. Lastly, Pepe discusses Iranian reactions to Western demonization and what it is like to travel there.
