Iran’s new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, is reshaping the country’s security establishment with a team of veteran hardliners. From former IRGC commander Mohsen Rezaei taking charge of the Supreme National Security Council to Ahmad Vahidi leading the Revolutionary Guard and Hossein Taeb returning to head the Basij, Tehran appears to be prioritising military strength, surveillance and internal control over compromise. The appointments come as tensions with Washington and Israel remain high, particularly over the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global energy chokepoint. With negotiations stalled and Iran demanding greater control over the waterway, the new security leadership could signal a tougher phase in the confrontation.
