A significant transition phase in state governance is beginning in Iran following recent political developments.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports that Ali Larijani, the Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, announced in a statement that a temporary leadership council will be established in the country today.
According to information released by Iran's state television, IRIB TV, the council in question will function until the next supreme leader is elected. This move is intended to prevent a power vacuum and ensure stability during the transition period.
Further official details regarding the composition and specific mandates of the council are expected to be released in the coming hours. The formation of a leadership council is considered one of the most critical legal procedures within the political system of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Under the Iranian constitution, such interim bodies are typically tasked with maintaining the continuity of executive and religious authority. Historically, these transitions are closely monitored by regional neighbors, including Azerbaijan, as they impact regional security and diplomatic relations. The process involves coordination between the country's highest clerical and political institutions to ensure a seamless transfer of power in accordance with established legal frameworks.
