Iranian opposition leader Mehdi Karroubi is set to be released from house arrest after 14 years. Karroubi was detained in 2011 for protesting the results of the 2009 presidential election, which sparked mass demonstrations. His release signals a potential shift in Iran’s political landscape, though it remains unclear if he will be allowed to resume political activities. Karroubi, along with fellow opposition figure Mirhossein Mousavi, had been a key figure in the Green Movement, which challenged the legitimacy of former President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s re-election. The decision to free him comes amid growing domestic and international pressure on Iran’s government.
