Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf (left) and Qassem Soleimani (right)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

From among three candidates, the Iranian regime\u2019s newly formed Majlis (parliament) chose \u00a0Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf<\/a>\u00a0as its new Speaker on Thursday, May 28. The other candidates, former head of Atomic Energy Organization of Iran Fereydoun Abbasi and former presidential candidate and interior minister Mostafa Mir-Salim respectively received 18 and 12 votes against Ghalibaf\u2019s 230.<\/p>\n

But even before the vote, Ghalibaf had been described as the favored candidate of regime\u00a0Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei<\/a>\u00a0for the Majlis Speaker post, which gave him the edge over his rivals.<\/p>\n

Ghalibaf\u2019s appointment as the Speaker of the “Supreme Leader’s Majles” or the “the Majles of Velayat,\u201d as the new parliament has become known, proves that Khamenei is out of options and maneuvering space, and his only solution to his current dilemmas is to put a hated criminal at the helm of the legislative.<\/p>\n

Iran regime \u2013 Venezuela relationship is not limited to recent fuel tankers shipped by mullahs<\/strong><\/h3>\n
The Iranian regime’s relationship with the Venezuelan dictators goes back to 2000s.
\nBack in 2008, the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) revealed:
\nIran regime\u2019s Air and Space Organization, part of its Ministry of Defense, and IRGC unit responsible for missile program are collaborating extensively and secretly in the field of missile technology transfer to Venezuela
\nThe IRGC\u2019s commanders even attended the June 2008 Venezuelan military exercise.
\nIn such situation, the international community should not close its eyes on the regime\u2019s recent activity.
\nIf not, this will only help the mullahs to fund terrorism and prolong their rule.<\/div>\n
