Pezeshkian's Cabinet Reshuffle Amid Zarif's Resignation

News summary

Former Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif resigned as Vice President for Strategic Affairs just weeks after his appointment, citing dissatisfaction with his work and the inability to fulfill promises regarding the inclusion of women, youth, and ethnic groups. His resignation comes amid President Masoud Pezeshkian's efforts to form a new cabinet, which includes seasoned diplomat Abbas Araqchi as the proposed Foreign Minister. Pezeshkian's cabinet list, presented to parliament, has drawn criticism for including conservatives and second or third-choice nominees. Pezeshkian aims to revive Iran's nuclear deal and improve international relations while facing heightened regional tensions and internal pressures. This reshuffle follows the death of hardline President Ebrahim Raisi and Pezeshkian's subsequent election. The new cabinet, if approved, may include Iran's first female minister in over a decade, despite opposition from hardline lawmakers.
