The recent trip of Rafael Grossi, the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), to Tehran is also examined. The podcast explores the two decades of escalation over Iran&#039;s nuclear program, and the differences between the nuclear programs of Libya, North Korea, and Iran. The discussion also places Iran&#039;s nuclear program in the context of Russia&#039;s war on Ukraine and examines the Iran-Russia-China relations. Robert Joseph analyzes how Iran&#039;s protests affect the nuclear program and discusses ways to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. 00:00 - Intro 01:10 - Weapons-grade uranium enrichment in Iran\u2019s nuclear facilities 05:15 -
