Western interference has nothing to do with women's rights in Iran
A woman's voice from inside Iran - the wrong voice for the BBC or CNN
I speak to Setareh Sadeqi in Esfahan, Iran - a PhD in American studies at Tehran University, researcher, political analyst and translator. What Setareh speaks about will probably surprise many who are buying the US/UK Israeli and Saudi narratives about the "women's rights" issue in Iran after the sad death of Masha Amini last month.
Setareh is also against the "morality police" and there are many things she would like to see change in Iran for women but she argues that the West calls for regime change have a very negative impact on any progress she and other women are working towards. The main stumbling block to any positive development in her country are Western barbaric sanctions.
While the Iranian women in diaspora, funded by the West, cry for further sanctions - Setareh asks people to demand the lifting of sanctions so her country can develop in a healthy way without Western proxy terrorist infiltration or violence.
She is an important voice for real freedom from the neocolonialist cabal. An end to Western intervention will liberate women in Iran from fighting to survive economically to campaign for the changes they are seeking in their own society without any foreign meddling. Iranian women are a powerful force inside Iran and they do not need the help of the West except to campaign to lift sanctions. Please take note.

and sorry for commenting soooooo much here. I’m quite new to this platform and super hyped on some real FanBoy shit actually having talked with VANESSA BEELEY🙌🙌🙌 made my day. Ok I’ll shut up now. Stay Safe Stay Strong.
Definitely somewhat amazed that even amongst her friends that are academics, no attempt to reach out to ask her opinion on such things as this recent protest, and that the propagandized mind has the tendency to still Taylor their comments and ideas (even upon hearing a Iranian females perspective) to fit that western narrative . Also interesting that these protest didn’t even disrupt daily life lol! Contrast that to the nightly news in the West. Lastly, I was glad to know that they can openly bitch about the government just like we do in USA without fear of punishment or disappearance.
I sometimes watch Americans visit Iran in videos online and like literally all nations on earth I’m always reminded we must always ALWAYS separate our opinions of a people or nation from that of their respective governments. Thank you again Vanessa for bringing to light repressed voices and information that allows us to have a more clear picture towards that illusive and invaluable element TRUTH.
