“Iran's deceased supreme leader Ali Khamenei's four sons - Mojtaba, Masoud, Mostafa, and Meysam have privileges in the country's religious, ideological, security, and economic power structures.” This was said to Medianews.az by political analyst Agshin Karimov.
He stated that Mojtaba Khamenei has exclusive influence among Iran's elite and among the brothers: “Currently, among the brothers, his name is mentioned more often as the heir after their father.
