This episode is the second part of a two-part conversation with Dr. William Figueroa about his article for the Iran 1400 Project entitled “Constitutionalism Across Asia: Iran and China.” Sydney Martin and Dr. Figueroa discuss Iran-China relations today and the geopolitical implications of the Iranian and Chinese constitutional revolutions discussed in the previous episode. Dr. Figueroa analyzes Iran and China’s often disproportionate relationship, providing his thoughts on a variety of aspects and events, from the  Iran-China 25-year agreement to the Russia-Ukraine War, to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s recent trip to Taiwan.
