Paradoxically, in the pessimistic scenario, Iran’s new government, controlled by conservatives and hardliners, actually fits into the region better than the current one. After all, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and many other Arab states are also ruled by authoritarian hardliners with little interest in de-escalating regional conflicts.
矛盾的是，在悲观情景中，将由保守派和强硬派控制的伊朗新政府实际上比当前政府更加适合该地区。毕竟，沙特阿拉伯、埃及和其他许多阿拉伯国家也由极权主义强硬派统治，对安抚地区冲突毫无兴趣。这将导致改革思维领导层在伊朗的复兴变得十分困难。
