would act as president knew elections must be held within 50 days. ron's cabinet has held an emergency meeting, assuming they would be no problem with the management of the country and vowing to follow right. wherever they are, i spoke to political analyst and the wrong experts, ali thoughtful a shot. i asked him about the images of morning that we're seeing from j. ron and i wanted to know if there is more going on in the wake of the crash than what we are see. it says the narrative that is, proclaims and propagates us by the states. and as you know, over at least the last decades there has been imagining an immense golf. it's not a reversible one between states and societies. so there are elements within the run in societies. we're not joining the state or the morning, but there is a sense of shot and friday as well because actual, as i see,
11:10 pm
has been implicated in a mass murder, political decisions. so at the end of the 1980s where he has been part of a very small committee, you know, sentencing people this, it has to death with no judicial process whatsoever. and also more recently, he was hand picked by the supreme leader of the wrong. and as positive that he has been widely, hey, of as one who is extremely incompetent. i mean, who hold a doctorate? but it's only probably, it's kind of just a few years of school. and also when it comes to it's just kind of pain promises. yes. fail, yes, failed so far to deliver on any of them. it runs the supreme leader is 85 years old president, right? you see had been seen as a possible successor. the next supreme leader. now that's president, right. you see is dead. can we expect, should we expect the power struggle at the top, at some point in the future?
