🇮🇷It is reported, that former Iranian President Hassan Rouhani and former Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif have been detained and placed under house arrest. Both belong to the “reformist” wing of the Iranian elites. If the information is valid, this appears to be a radical strengthening of the conservatives amid an attempted coup and the threat of a US attack. After the riots and terrorist attacks initiated by the US and Israel, the IRGC will undoubtedly demand a more stringent domestic and foreign policy. Whereas Zarif himself was more inclined towards traditional Iranian compromises with the West, which have completely ceased to work in recent years.
