Iran’s new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei is a “more hardline version” of his father and despite Donald Trump’s goals, the war may end with a younger and stronger version of the regime in place, a journalist has said.<\/p>\n

Tara Kangarlou, author of The Heartbeat of Iran, said “every faction of Iran’s political apparatus” was “united” behind the son of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.<\/p>\n

She told Sky News we were likely to see images of regime supporters “out on the streets” in the coming days despite the airstrikes in Iran. <\/p>\n

“Mojtaba Khamenei is a younger, more emboldened and more hardline version of his father. He has the full backing of the IRGC, the Revolutionary Guard,” said Kangarlou, noting the IRGC is the force behind a stifling of any form of dissent in Iran.<\/p>\n

She added that the White House’s reaction to the announcement of Khamenei as the new supreme leader would be important.<\/p>\n

Donald Trump, who cited regime change as one of several justifications behind the war on Iran, has only said that he is “unhappy” with his appointment (see previous post).<\/p>\n

“We’ll see how he’s going to react and whether or not that means that Mojtaba is now under threat – would he be eliminated? What would that then entail? A lot of unknowns.”<\/p>\n

She said some of the Iranian population were concerned that a “new or younger version” of the regime would remain in place once the war is over.<\/p>\n

“We are left with in some ways with the regime 2.0, except this time stronger,” Kangarlou said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
