Saudi Arabia’s execution of Nimr al-Nimr has further stoked regional sectarian discord. However, the attack on the Saudi embassy in Tehran has spoiled much of the political capital that Iran built with the nuclear agreement. Carnegie’s Marc Lynch joined a discussion of the regional and international implications of recent events in the region on ECFR’s World in 30 Minutes.
This podcast originally appeared at the European Council on Foreign Relations.
