On May 31, officials from the Iranian Presidential Palace denied reports that President Pervazchiyan had resigned to the Supreme Leader Majid Qotbi. They said that such claims were spread by some foreign media as rumors.
The official in charge of news and communications affairs at the Presidential Palace, Tabbatai, posted a statement on social media platforms, denying any rumors regarding Pesezhiyians resignation. He said that Pesezhiyian will continue to carry out his duties and will not stop serving the Iranian people.
According to Iranian media reports, Pesezhiyan said in a speech that the government will continue to carry out its tasks with determination, until the last moment of life.
On the same day, Pesezhiyian posted on social media platforms, stating that the country is currently facing many challenges.
