Iran's Assembly of Experts Formally Installs Mojtaba Khamenei as Supreme Leader

Iran's Assembly of Experts formally appointed Mojtaba Khamenei, 56, son of the late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, as Iran's new supreme leader. President Masoud Pezeshkian, IRGC leadership, and senior officials pledged allegiance. The younger Khamenei maintains close ties with the Revolutionary Guard and signals a continuation of hard-line policies. Trump called the appointment 'unacceptable.'
