Unanswered questions in conversation with Ali Asghar Bayat; We need more than just a kindergarten, we need a nursing home / Conversation with Ali Kalaii.

ظاهرا پرسش از آنچه گفته بودند ذهن ایشان را برهم زد و تماس قطع شد و تماس‌های بعدی هم به جایی نرسید. One and a half minutes before the end, suddenly the page turned.
