Tragic Demise of Iranian Leaders |
Supreme Leader's Swift Action
Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, whose authority stands paramount within the Shiite theocracy, swiftly moved to address the void left by their untimely demise. Appointing a relatively obscure vice president as caretaker, Ayatollah Khamenei sought to reassure the populace that the government retained its stability and control.
