Khamenei Confirms He Approved US-Iran MOU Despite Personal Reservations

🕌 TEHRAN — The Supreme Leader just removed the deal's most dangerous ambiguity. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Khamenei's public confirmation closes the hardliner escape hatch — no faction can now credibly claim the MOU lacks supreme authority. "Despite reservations" signals internal dissent was real but overruled. The "assurances on Iran's rights" framing is the price: Khamenei needs a domestic narrative that Geneva wasn't surrender. That framing will collide with Vance's version almost immediately.
