Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, supreme leader's protege, dies at 63 in helicopter crash

Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has died. He was a hard-line protege of the country’s supreme leader who helped oversee the mass executions of thousands in 1988 and later led the country as it enriched uranium near weapons-grade levels, launched a major attack on Israel and experienced mass protests

I wonder if the death of this man will pave the way for a leader who will enjoy better relations with other nations?

I guess we can only hope for the best and prepare for the worst in my view.

Probably not. The Ayatollah is still alive. They'll find a replacement likely equally as bad, or worse.

I was reading from a new source I trust that Iran's foreign policy is unlikely to change so I guess I was being a bit optimistic about change in that respect.

With what nations? You mean Western Imperialist ones? No. We trust God and won't trust the devil. Russia made that mistake, see where that lead them.
