Ali Chamenei
Ali Chamenei is the Supreme Leader of Iran, a position he has held since 1989. As the highest-ranking political and religious authority in the country, Chamenei wields significant influence over all branches of government, the military, and the media. He is known for his hardline stance against the United States and Israel, often advocating for resistance against Western policies in the Middle East. His recent remarks, as highlighted in various news articles, indicate a refusal to engage in negotiations with the U.S. under President Donald Trump, as tensions between the two nations escalate over Iran's nuclear program and military capabilities.
