First Wednesday: Iran, democracy and an international war of words

Wed 2 Jun, 7pm

Price: £12.50 (Early Booking £10)

One year on from Iran's tumultuous and controversial presidential elections, how far is the country from genuine democracy? And with a new government in Downing Street, what will the UK's response be to an anxious and potentially nuclear-armed Iran? Join us to discuss modern Iran and its challenges with Iranian-Canadian journalist Maziar Bahari, who was imprisoned in Iran last year; Ian Black, the Guardian's Middle East editor; Ann Harrison, East Gulf team researcher Amnesty International. Chaired by Pooneh Ghoddoosi, journalist with BBC Persian TV.
