JUST IN: I’m Not Satisfied With My Work – Iranian Vice President Says As He Resigns After 11 Days In Office

Mohammed Javad Zarif has resigned his position as the vice president of Iran barely 11 days after assuming office.

Zarif’s resignation leaves President Massud Pezeshkian with the option of scouting for a replacement.

In a post shared on X, Zarif said he was resigning because he has not been able to fulfil expectations.

His words, “I am not satisfied with my work and regret that I have not been able to fulfil expectations.”

Zarif had also hinted that the selection of ministers for Pezeshkian’s new cabinet had been the reason for his decision.

He said that at least seven of the 19 ministers nominated were not his first choice.

One of the key figures for Pezeshkian in the implementation of the new foreign policy line, Zarif’s resignation is the second crisis for the Iranian president since he took office in July.

He assumed office after the killing of the Palestinian militant Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran.

Zarif was Pezeshkian’s right-hand man during his presidential election campaign and, due to his popularity. He also played a key role in Pezeshkian ‘s victory.

After the election, Zarif and a group of experts were expected to compile a list of candidates for government posts who would implement promised reforms.

Pezeshkian presented a list on Sunday that the observers believe did not match the plans and promises of reform.
