Shirin Ebadi: “We are moving closer to end of Islamic Republic” | Eye for Iran | EP 65

Author: Iran International English August 29, 2025 Duration: 35:24
Nobel Peace Prize laureate Shirin Ebadi says Iran is heading toward collapse — with daily executions, economic freefall, and widespread shortages of water and electricity. In this Eye for Iran interview, she explains why reform is impossible, why Western governments have failed Iranians, and how the people themselves can bring about peaceful regime change through unity, nationwide strikes, and a UN-supervised referendum.

Her message to Iranians: the cost of living under this regime is greater than the cost of change. Unity is the key to victory.
