What are we to expect from Iran's new president? Do we face a new strategy by the Iranian regime or does Hassan Rouhani merely stand for a new tactic? Is he a "sign of hope" or just "the friendly face of terror"? What does his election actually mean for the Iranian opposition, the nuclear negotiations and the power struggle within the regime? How can Israel and how should the West react to the new situation?

Clemens Wergin is the foreign editor of the German newspaper group Die Welt and the author of the blog Flatworld. He studied Middle East Studies, Islamic Studies and Journalism at the University of Hamburg and took part at the "Arthur F. Burns Fellow Program" in the United States.

Dr. Stephan Grigat is a political scientist and publicist based in Vienna. Dr. Grigat is co-founder and scientific director of STOP THE BOMB and edited several books on the essence of the Iranian regime and the Iranian nuclear threat. He is currently a lecturer at the University of Vienna.
