Post-war Iran's regime change prospects
The report indicates that the end of the war between the United States and Iran could open up prospects for a gradual political transition within Iran, particularly through enhanced opportunities for reform and a review of internal conditions. Sources confirmed that military strikes and sanctions have not led to the collapse or overthrow of the regime, and that Iran's future is more closely tied to post-war circumstances than to the outcomes of military operations. Diplomatic understandings are expected to lead to a easing of sanctions, which would reduce external pressures on officials and shift focus back to issues such as corruption and public freedoms. Meanwhile, sanctions and ongoing conflict have inflicted significant harm on civil society and the middle class, although Iranian society possesses qualities such as a well-educated population and strong institutions that support possibilities for political change. Given persistent economic challenges and the strengthening of security forces, prospects for internal change are limited. Nonetheless, some factions emphasize the need to revisit Western policies and to target sanctions at those responsible for human rights violations. Regional stability remains essential to creating a conducive environment for a potential political transition.
