Robert Malley and the Iranian Influence Network Scandal
A scandal involving the U.S. Special Envoy to Iran, Robert Malley, is unfolding following reports of his suspension for mishandling classified information. Investigations suggest Malley may have been part of an "Iranian Experts Initiative" designed to influence U.S. policy. The report also names Arianne Tabatabai, a high-level Pentagon official, as a member of this network who reportedly consulted with Iranian officials before policy events.
