Speaking to Rudaw's Diyar Kurda @diyarkurda on Wednesday, Marlin Stutzman @RepStutzman said the chances of resolving longstanding tensions depend heavily on who holds power in Iran and whether the country abandons what he described as an “extreme ideology.”

“It’s going to really depend on who the new leadership of Iran is,” Stutzman said, expressing concern that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) continues to dominate both military operations and negotiations. “Are we going to still have the same extreme ideology in the new leadership? I don’t think that’s going to work in the long run.”
