DUBAI/LONDON - Iranian President Hassan Rouhani rejected the resignation of Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif on Wednesday, standing by a moderate ally long targeted by hardliners in factional struggles over a 2015 nuclear deal with the West.
Zarif’s departure would have deprived Iran of its most skilled diplomat, a patient negotiator who was able to strike a deal with Western powers during years of intense negotiations. The widespread publicity around Zarif’s resignation announcement, and then strong support from senior officials which followed, may give him political ammunition against hardliners as an internal power struggle continues.But his move thrust the schism between Iran’s hardliners and moderates into the open, effectively challenging Khamenei to pick a side.
On Wednesday, Zarif thanked Iranians for their support. “As a modest servant I have never had any concern but elevating the foreign policy and the status of the foreign ministry,” he added in an Instagram post.
