- He urged Khamenei to step down, promising him a fair trial, and assured Iranians that the country would not fall into civil war but move toward democracy and stability.
- These developments reflect escalating opposition leadership as the 46-year-old regime faces internal collapse and intensified external pressure, signaling a possible critical transition in Iran’s future.
