Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council Ali Larijani has praised the election of Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei as the new Leader of the Islamic Revolution, saying he has been raised within the late Leader Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei’s school of thought.
“Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei is the child of that noble man whofor years, before and after the 1979 Revolution, actively participated in resistance movements,” Larijani said in a televised interview.
He said many negative media campaigns were launched against the Assembly of Experts but the transparent and legal process undertaken by the assembly provided a clear response to those attempts.
“The new Leader should be the embodiment of national unity; everyone must contribute to this path, because today, we need unity and solidarity more than ever,” he said.
He also voiced hope that under Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei’s leadership, “Iran moves toward development, sees economic conditions improve, and enjoys greater peace and prosperity for its people.”
Iran’s Assembly of Experts announced early on Monday that its members elected Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei as the third Leader of the Islamic Revolution. Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei was martyred in a terror attack by the US and Israeli criminal regimes on February 28, 2026.
