Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has asserted that the country’s political system remains stable despite the killing of senior officials in recent attacks, emphasizing that governance in Iran is rooted in strong institutions rather than individuals.
In an interview with Al Jazeera, Araghchi stated that targeted strikes by the United States and Israel against key Iranian figures would not destabilize the government in Tehran. He stressed that the Islamic Republic’s structure continues to function effectively regardless of the loss of prominent leaders.

His remarks come in the wake of the killing of Ali Larijani, a senior security figure known for his conservative influence within Iran’s theocratic system. Larijani was killed along with his son, Morteza Larijani, and an aide in an Israeli strike, according to Iranian authorities. In a separate attack, Gholamreza Soleimani, head of the Basij militia, was also reported killed.
Addressing the impact of these developments, Araghchi remarked that the resilience of Iran’s governance lies in its established political, economic, and social institutions. “The presence or absence of a single individual does not affect this structure,” he said, adding that while individuals play important roles, the system itself remains robust.
He further noted that despite past high-profile assassinations, including that of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, the country’s political framework has continued to operate without disruption.
Araghchi’s comments underline Tehran’s position that its institutional strength ensures continuity and stability, even amid escalating regional tensions and targeted attacks on its leadership.
