UK Debt Transfer to Iran and Jailed Aid Worker
The British government prepares to transfer £400 million to Iran, officially to settle a 1970s arms deal dispute, though critics link it to the release of jailed aid worker Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe. Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson faces scrutiny for his handling of the case. The hosts compare this to the Obama administration's cash payments to Iran, suggesting the "aid worker" may actually be a high-value intelligence asset.
