Iran Pres’ ‘no show’ at interview after US journalist refuses to wear head scarf

• A massive controversy has erupted after Iran President Ebrahim Raisi, who is in the U.S for UN General Assembly session, refused to give interview to a journalist as she said no to wearing a head scarf. Veteran journalist and CNN anchor, Christiane Amanpour, who has interviewed every Iran President since 1995, was prepared to question Raisi on Wednesday. However, 40 minutes after the interview was due to start, Raisi's aide asked her to cover her head. She 'politely declined' the request. Watch this video to find out what happened next.
