Ghalibaf-Jalili power struggle erupts publicly

A public power struggle has erupted between Iranian political factions aligned with Parliament Speaker Mohammad Ghalibaf and former presidential candidate Saeed Jalili. Tasnim News Agency, affiliated with the IRGC and Ghalibaf, mocked ten conditions attributed to new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei as 'magic beans,' prompting Jalili and Raefipour supporters to gather outside Tasnim's building and write slogans on its walls. The rift deepened when Jalili and his allies refused to sign a statement by 261 parliament members supporting Ghalibaf's negotiating team, exposing fractures within Iran's power structure that contradict recent public displays of unity.
