Here's your summary from What Iran's New President Could Mean For Western Relations (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLoy1iWSe6c) on the Bloomberg Television channel:
**TLDR:** Iran's new reformist president faces limited power due to the supreme leader's authority, but aims to improve relations with the West by restarting talks on the nuclear deal.
1. The new Iranian president, Ebrahim Raisi, won on a low turnout against hardliner candidates, signaling a lack of popularity for hardliners in the country.
2. Raisi aims to revive talks with the West to lift sanctions on Iran's economy, believing that economic potential cannot be fulfilled without US sanctions being removed.
3. Despite the president's intentions, the ultimate authority in Iran lies with the supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, which may limit Raisi's ability to make significant changes in the country's foreign relations.
