Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has formally asked the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) for advice on whether to hold public sessions of the parliament. The move comes as Iran faces complex security and political challenges.
According to official sources, Ghalibaf sent a letter to the SNSC emphasizing the need for the council's consultation before deciding to hold public sessions. The decision aims to ensure security and stability for parliamentary activities while reflecting concerns over the current security situation.
The request follows a period during which the Iranian parliament (Majlis) held some closed-door meetings due to security issues. A return to open sessions could signal improved security but also carries risks without thorough preparation.
The Supreme National Security Council is Iran's top decision-making body on security and foreign policy, operating under the direct guidance of the Supreme Leader. Ghalibaf's request for SNSC advice underscores the gravity of the issue and the close coordination among Iran's branches of power.
No details have been provided on the timeline or specific conditions for resuming public sessions. Observers suggest the final decision will depend on the SNSC's assessment of domestic security and political stability.
