Fresh revelations suggest that Iran’s powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) may be tightening its grip over the country’s political system, raising questions about the future of diplomacy and internal power balance. According to reports, the appointment of Mohammad Bagher Zolghadr as Iran’s new security chief was not entirely a civilian decision, but one heavily influenced by the IRGC. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian is believed to have faced significant pressure from senior IRGC leadership, including Ahmad Vahidi, to approve the appointment despite internal resistance. This development points to growing tensions between civilian leadership and military power centers in Tehran.
