What negotiation could mean for Iranians as the death toll from protests climbs | DW News

From DW News.

A Human Rights group says more than 500 people have been killed in Iran’s government crackdown on the largest protests in several years. Iran blames the bloodshed on foreign interference with the nationwide demonstrations now into their third week.
The Islamic regime has ordered counter-rallies in an attempt to regain the initiative – with pro-government supporters flooding the streets on Monday. With the threat of US intervention in Iran looming large, President Donald Trump is considering its options to curb the regime’s repression of the protests, but says the leaders of the Islamic Republic have called him to negotiate. With insights from security expert Hans-Jakob Schindler, Iran analyst Sara Bazoobandi, and Rojin Mukriyan, a lecturer in Political Theory at University College Cork in Ireland.
