Iran’s President Reportedly Tries to Resign Twice Amid Leadership Turmoil

A Middle East expert tells Fox News that Iran’s president has made two recent attempts to step down. The first resignation offer was rejected, and a second effort followed amid escalating conflict. Nazee Moinian, an associate fellow at the Middle East Institute, says these failed bids reflect deepening instability at the highest levels of Iran’s government. She notes that mounting military pressure and internal uncertainty are driving key officials to distance themselves from the crisis. Her remarks also underscore the limited real power of the presidency under Iran’s Supreme Leader and security institutions. The unsuccessful resignation attempts raise questions about cohesion within the ruling establishment and hint at potential fractures that could shape both the war’s course and Iran’s political future.
