The death of Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, represents a "step forward" and hope for the country, said his nephew, Mahmoud Moradkhani, a France-based doctor and outspoken critic of the Islamic Republic.
" Like most Iranians, I am happy ," Moradkhani said in a telephone conversation from his home in northern France. "I am very happy about the death of Ali Khamenei. I think it is a step forward, a hope," he was quoted as saying by the AFP news agency.
Moradkhani, the son of one of Khamenei’s sisters, has long been an opponent of the current system in Tehran. He acknowledged that war and military intervention could slow down political processes, but hinted that this development might be inevitable. “ War and military intervention slow down the political process to some extent, which is unfortunate, but perhaps we had to go through this step ,” he said.
According to him, the Iranian regime may not be able to survive after Khamenei's elimination. " The regime's internal rivalries are such that it will not be able to resist them. It will have to disappear and hand over power to the people ," Moradkhani said.
His statements come at a moment of profound political transition in Iran, as authorities have launched the constitutional process to choose the successor to the supreme leader, amid internal tensions and open conflict with the US and Israel.
