Summary
Masoud Pezeshkian was taken to a secret location in Tehran and allowed only minutes inside a dark, tinted-window car with a man presented to him as Mojtaba Khamenei, according to sources familiar with the episode.
The account suggests the Iranian president did not meet in a formal office setting but in a tightly controlled encounter with limited time and visibility.
Iran International reported the episode as a rare glimpse into how access to Mojtaba Khamenei is managed, underscoring the secrecy surrounding contacts with the figure described in the report as supreme leader.
Was the bizarre encounter in a darkened car a genuine meeting with Mojtaba Khamenei or a psychological tactic to humiliate Iran's president?
Could the conflicting reports of secret meetings and resignations be a deliberate smokescreen to obscure the true state of Iran's covert nuclear operations?
With the IRGC tightening its grip on Iran's wartime strategy, does President Pezeshkian retain any actual authority to negotiate international agreements?
