- Negotiators bound by Khamenei’s directives
Amid swirling domestic debates over international diplomacy, the Representative of the Iranian Supreme Leader in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has issued a firm call for total political alignment, asserting that all state factions must submit to the final authority of Mojtaba Khamenei.
The senior official addressed the internal friction surrounding Iran's diplomatic engagements, acknowledging that while public and political debates are a permanent fixture of governance, they must stop at the executive command of the state.
"Differences of opinion always exist, but when there is one Supreme Leader, everyone obeys him." — Said the Representative of the Iranian Supreme Leader in the IRGC
Warning against internal distraction
The representative directly targeted internal critics on both sides of the diplomatic spectrum.
Addressing those who flatly reject the concept of negotiations, as well as those who frame the ongoing talks purely as a struggle, the official warned that public infighting plays directly into foreign hands.
"Let those who reject negotiations, and those who see them as a struggle, know that the enemy wants to occupy us with internal issues," the representative stated, urging domestic factions to remain focused on broader strategic threats.
No retreats or concessions
Defending the state's decision to participate in diplomatic talks, the IRGC official clarified that diplomacy does not equate to weakness or capitulation.
The representative emphasized that the fundamental goal of entering into negotiations is absolutely not to hand over concessions to adversaries or to retreat in the face of foreign pressure.
To ensure these strategic boundaries are maintained, the official confirmed that Iran's diplomatic representatives do not operate independently.
The representative concluded by noting that the state has continuously demanded its negotiating delegation move and act strictly within the specific guidelines and directives laid out by the Leader of the Revolution.
