Journalist Betül Begümhan Aydoğan, who hosts experts in their fields every week on Yorum12 at the studio of 12punto, the island of free journalism, evaluated developments in the outside world with journalist Çağlar Tekin.

Aydoğan and Tekin discussed the death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, what Raisi represented in the Iranian regime, what Israel and the US will do in the coming period, and Turkey-Iran relations.

Highlights from Tekin's statements:

• We can, to some extent, make the comment that the Iranian state is a paper tiger.
• Raisi may have been the victim of an assassination from within the country.
• The decay existing within the Iranian state has been revealed by Raisi's death.
• Ebrahim Raisi and those with him should have been found within 13-14 hours.
• There are suspicions regarding the search process for Raisi and those accompanying him.
• A sabotage attempt by foreign powers could also be a factor in Raisi's death.
• I do not expect a radical regime change in Iran.
• Raisi's death could escalate tensions in regional countries. Iran may take bold steps against Israel.
• Relations between Turkey and Iran are not good, but they are not bad either.
• Turkey's assistance to its neighbor has flattered its pride.
