Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf retains strong backing as Speaker of Iran's Islamic Consultative Assembly following his May 2026 re-election to a seventh consecutive term with 235 of 271 votes cast. Internal challenges have surfaced from a small group of ultraconservative Paydari Party lawmakers critical of his dual role as lead negotiator in talks with the United States and his handling of parliamentary sessions amid the ongoing conflict. These critics cite alleged violations of Supreme Leader red lines and procedural issues around session closures, yet internal tallies show fewer than 30 lawmakers aligned against him. Ghalibaf continues to address parliament on military-diplomatic strategy, including conditions for Strait of Hormuz reopening, reflecting sustained institutional support tied to his Revolutionary Guards background and majority faction alignment. Any shift would likely require broader elite consensus or major developments in negotiations or wartime dynamics.
