Iran's Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, has announced his approval of a preliminary agreement with the United States. This decision marks a significant shift in his position, as he had previously opposed the deal. Khamenei stated that he was persuaded to change his stance by President Masoud Pezeshkian. The President reportedly provided assurances that the rights of Iran would be fully protected. Furthermore, the agreement is intended to safeguard the interests of the "resistance front." This development suggests a potential opening for diplomatic engagement between the two nations. The move reflects the internal influence of President Pezeshkian on the country's highest leadership.
