However, the situation in Iran is nuanced and influenced by a range of internal and external factors beyond the legacy of organizations like the FSB. While there may be connections, it’s essential to analyze each country’s specific circumstances and challenges. My article aims to highlight the growing internal divisions within Iran, particularly in the context of Pezeshkian’s cabinet, rather than focusing solely on broader geopolitical dynamics.
