Foreign Minister Israel Katz comments on the win of reformist Masoud Pezeshkian in Iran’s presidential elections, casting it as a defeat for the country’s Islamist leadership and urging the international community to ramp up the pressure.

“The people of Iran have sent a clear message of demand for change and opposition to the Ayatollah regime through the elections,” Katz says on X.

“Now the world must designate the IRGC as a terrorist organization and demand the cancellation of the nuclear program and the cessation of support for terrorist organizations. This is the only chance to realize the change.”
