Succession of Ali Khamenei Sparks Controversy

In recent days, the topic of succession for Ali Khamenei, the leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, has emerged as a hot topic in the media and political circles. According to an exclusive report from Iran International, members of the Assembly of Experts held a secret meeting at Khamenei's request to discuss and vote on the succession of Mojtaba Khamenei. This decision was made amid concerns about the potential assassination of Khamenei by the Israeli regime. The Imam of Isfahan also mentioned that three candidates for Khamenei's succession have been identified in a commission. Some members of the Assembly opposed certain candidates, indicating existing divisions within this institution. On the other hand, some experts believe that Khamenei is attempting to establish a successor before his death, creating all conditions to secure Mojtaba Khamenei's power. The current situation indicates a hereditary succession in a religious system, which fundamentally contradicts the will of the Iranian people and the social realities of the country.
