Extremist Protests in Iran Against the Ministry of Foreign Affairs: Calls for the Murder of Foreign Minister Araghchi
In recent days, internal pressure on Masoud Pezeshkian's government from radical circles in Iran has been mounting. According to reports on social media, groups of extremist regime supporters held demonstrations in front of the governor's office building in the city of Zanjan, dressed in shrouds, as a gesture expressing readiness for self-sacrifice.
Vahid Online reported that the protesters shouted violent slogans and explicit threats: "If anything is signed, the person responsible must be murdered". Similar messages were also disseminated by Iran International, which is identified with the opposition in exile that is critical of the regime in Tehran, which noted that protesters are demanding the execution of Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.
The background to the protesters' public rage is their claims that the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the negotiating team headed by Araghchi are granting dangerous concessions to the United States. According to another report by Iran International, the protest reflects a growing internal rift within the regime's supporters regarding the current administration's foreign policy.
As of now, it is unclear exactly when the videos circulating online were filmed, but they have garnered tens of thousands of views within a few short hours, which indicates widespread public interest in the internal political unrest in Iran surrounding the nuclear issue and relations with the West.
