About this listen

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: Iranian clerics have chosen the son of the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to lead the regime. But even as Tehran projects stability, I’ll break down the military math and explain why some hard-liners may be uneasy with what looks like dynastic succession. Spain denies U.S. forces access to key military bases tied to the Iran campaign, exposing cracks inside the Western alliance. Pakistan and Afghanistan trade cross-border strikes for a fifth straight day, raising the risk of further regional instability. Opposition leader and Nobel Peace Prize winner María Corina Machado says she plans to return to Venezuela in the coming weeks with elections in sight.
