Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi revealed that he has not met Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei in person since Khamenei's appointment, and that only a limited number of individuals have met him. The statement, reported by an Iranian the source, adds a specific timeframe to earlier reports that Araghchi had not met Khamenei. As The Zioneer reported on Sunday, Araghchi had previously denied meetings with Khamenei. The new detail underscores the isolation of the new Supreme Leader, who an Iranian diplomat told TASS earlier this week would avoid public appearances as long as the war continues. The report is based on a single source and has not been independently confirmed.
