Mojtaba Khamenei, 56, was tapped to assume control of the country by Iran’s Assembly of experts, Iranian International reported Tuesday.
Motjaba is known for a staunch adherence to his father’s hardline conservatism, and has close ties to Iran’s notoriously brutal Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps military body, according to CNN.



Yeah, no. Russia really needed gas and oil to be much more expensive globally. That Ukraine war is costly. Also the Trump/Epstein files. Also Israel.
Russia is actively giving military aid to Iran and vice versa, what are you talking about?
Because Iran is targeting vessels in the Strait of Hormuz it brings the global price of oil up and drives demand for Russian oil. Yes, Russia supports Iran, but this war is a win for Russian interests. It erodes the international order, stamps out rebellion in Iran, boosts oil profitability, reinforces their stance that the neoliberal world order is a threat, and weakens America.
Plus, they won’t directly intervene cause of their non-aggression pact with Israel (Israel doesn’t arm Ukraine, Russian oligarchs vacation in Israel)

Yes.
Fully agreed, but that’s all America’s doing. If there’s any implication that Russia somehow controls America while being its nemesis, it doesn’t make much sense.
This admin is full of individuals that the Kremlin has kompromat on. It’s not surprising at all.
FIFY
you guys are so disingenious fucks its crazy
US and israel are doing blatant imperialism, and even if russia happens to be benefit from it how can you claim it is all conspired by them? Neo liberal world order is shit and I hope it ends Weak america is good for the wrold
I don’t think anyone suggested that, but go off. First comment blamed Russia, Israel, and the Epstein files. Someone asked why Russia, I explained why Russia. Thank you, come again
westoids are so dumb low iq chimps they would blame clear blatant american imperialism on russia, shame on you
In that racist muck of how you expressed yourself one does find the bright jewel of a point that in the West (especially America, IMHO) there’s a overwhelming tendency to “blame the foreigners” in some way or other (be it “immigrants” or “foreign states”) for things which are first and foremost the fault of 100% local people, the 100% local system that puts them in power and the 100% local citizenry who went along with all of it for decades.
Specifically on what America is doing now, none of whatever Russian influence (much less, the far, far, vaster Israeli one) would at all work if the quality of the local politicians which people kept putting in power for decades (all the while going along with the stupidly obvious nationalist propaganda of how special America) wasn’t so abysmally bad.
Americans in general are first and foremost to blame for this shit, mainly for their cheerleading of a system which started flawed and got increasingly broken over time without them doing anything to fix it (when was the last time there was a General Strike in the US???!).
