Masoud Pezeshkian remains Iran's president amid ongoing tensions between his civilian administration and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which has sidelined him from key security and military decisions since the February 2026 assassination of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Multiple unconfirmed reports of resignation threats surfaced in May and June 2026 over exclusion from decision-making and IRGC influence, though Pezeshkian has repeatedly denied any intent to step down and affirmed his commitment to serve. A brief June 2026 U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding collapsed within weeks, contributing to renewed U.S. sanctions pressure and domestic economic strains including fuel shortages and price adjustments. Pezeshkian continues to emphasize diplomacy, economic reforms, and national unity while attending regional summits, with his term extending into 2028 unless removed through formal processes involving the Supreme Leader or parliament. These power dynamics and external pressures shape trader assessments of removal timelines.
