Who determines Iran’s fighting and negotiating position amid US threats?
Iran and the US are engaged in mediated talks to prevent a new war, with Qatar and Pakistan trying to head off further US strikes. President Masoud Pezeshkian says he has been granted "certain powers" over the negotiations by Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, but real influence now appears to rest with IRGC commanders and security officials. Tehran insists key decisions flow through the Supreme National Security Council and the supreme leader's office, and it demands that Washington fulfil commitments first, including ending the naval blockade and restoring the Strait of Hormuz arrangements.
