Analyst Discusses Interim Leadership Council's Authority
Mehdi Khalaji, a senior fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, has provided commentary on recent developments concerning an interim Leadership Council.
Khalaji stated uncertainty about whether a succession has already occurred, citing news from the previous day that the interim Leadership Council announced its authority over declarations of war and peace.
This indicates to Khalaji that the council may be awaiting the finalization of the succession process.
