Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf remains speaker of Iran's Islamic Consultative Assembly following his re-election in May 2026 for the third annual session of the 12th parliament, securing a strong majority of votes among the 290 members. Limited challenges from ultraconservative Paydari faction lawmakers in June 2026 over his role in the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding with the United States failed to gain traction, as internal tallies showed fewer than 30 opponents. Ghalibaf continues active leadership into August 2026, including high-level visits to Iraq for bilateral security and economic talks and public statements on sanctions, the Strait of Hormuz, and regional diplomacy amid the post-conflict environment after Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei's death. Speaker elections occur annually in May, so any shift would require a parliamentary vote or internal coalition realignment before the next cycle.
