Iran's Assembly of Experts on Sunday chose Modžtaba Chameneí, the second-born son of the killed ayatollah Alí Chameneí, as the country's new supreme leader. The decision came several days after it was noted that the new leadership would bear the Chameneí surname, confirming continuity within this significant family in Iran's political system. interez.sk ↗
Modžtaba Chameneí has close ties to the influential Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and is regarded as a hardline supporter of the regime. His selection suggests that the country's political orientation is likely to further intensify in a radical direction following the death of his father, who had led the Islamic Republic since 1989. The elder Chameneí died on February 28 during Israeli-American strikes on Tehran. idnes.cz ↗
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz immediately reacted to the news, declaring that the new Iranian leader would be a clear target for elimination. His statement also confirmed Israel's readiness to continue operations against Iranian officials. The selection process took place amid a tense security situation and under time pressure, with acting official Alireza Arafi coordinating the running of the state in the interim. hnonline.sk ↗
Despite this significant change in leadership, Iran's political system remains relatively stable. The new election represents the final step in the process of a secure transition period, with further developments depending on the direction the new leadership chooses amid the ongoing security crisis and internal political challenges. interez.sk ↗
