Serious Rift Recorded in Iranian Political Leadership
March 29, 2026
There appears to be a serious rift within the Iranian political landscape, with President Pezeshkian and the Revolutionary Guard's chief Vahidi clashing over war management. There are concerns that without a ceasefire, the country's economy could collapse imminently. Pezeshkian is asking for the return of executive powers to the government, while Vahidi counters by blaming the government for failing to implement reforms. The tension between the two sides seems to impact the functioning of the economy, with significant issues arising in daily life. This internal conflict indicates that the Revolutionary Guards are gaining more power over the political leadership.
