Iran's foreign minister announces resignation

Available for over a year

Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has said he is stepping down, in a surprise announcement posted to his Instagram account. Signs of a power struggle in Tehran? A question for Ahmad Majidyar of the IranObserved Project at the Middle East Institute in Washington. CEO of Tesla Elon Musk is in trouble with the Securities and Exchange Commission again. Last year he posted a tweet promising to take his company private, then promised not to post potentially market-moving tweets without clearing them with company officials. But a week ago he did it again, and now there look to be more severe consequences, as we hear from our North America Technology Reporter, Dave Lee. Recent film school graduate Rayka Zehtabchi's film "Period. End of Sentence" took the award for the best short documentary at the Oscars. It reveals how a remote village in India has taken on the problem of the taboo of menstruation and the lack of sanitary products for women, by making their own. We speak to the director about winning the Oscar. Does an apology matter? We ask Dean Foster, founder of DFA Intercultural Global Solutions and author of the Global Etiquette Guide. Plus our regular workplace commentator Alison Green argues that bad managers can make for bad workers. All this and more discussed with our two guests throughout the show: Jyoti Malhotra, Editor of National & Strategic Affairs, in Delhi. And Alexis Goldstein, activist and financial reform advocate in Washington. (Photo: Iran's former Foreign Minister Javad Zarif. Credit: AFP.)
