Iran's New Supreme Leader: IRGC's Role Unclear

0:00It's March 12th in Adelaide. Let's get into the news. Iran announced a new Supreme Leader this week. Mochitaba Kamanai, son of the assassinated Ayatollah Ali Kamanai, steps into the role amid big changes in the country. But many wonder who's actually calling the shots. Power seems to rest with the revolutionary garcore, or IRGC, the elite and heavily armed forces that influence key decisions. These guards have grown into a major force since the revolution, controlling vast parts of Iran's military, economy, and politics behind the scenes. Iranian journalist and author Arash Azisi recently broke down with his means. He says the IRGC could steer Iran toward even tougher policies at home and abroad. Meanwhile, the situation stays tense as people watch how this power shift plays out in the coming months. D&N is brought to you by our sponsor. Relax deeper, reset faster, comfort you can hear.
