Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf was re-elected speaker of Iran’s parliament in late May 2026 with 235 of 271 votes cast, securing a seventh consecutive term despite challengers from the ultraconservative Paydari faction. Limited internal criticism surfaced in June over his handling of U.S. talks and parliamentary procedures during wartime disruptions, yet an internal tally showed fewer than 30 lawmakers opposed his leadership, and no formal removal effort advanced. Ghalibaf continues to hold the speakership alongside his role in regional diplomacy, including recent high-level visits to Iraq, with no subsequent legislative votes or leadership challenges reported through mid-August. Traders weigh these institutional majorities and the absence of decisive opposition against the potential for future factional pressure ahead of any scheduled presiding-board votes.
