No, Iran’s President Hasn’t Resigned! — He’s Doubling Down in the Face of War

According to Saed News, the Office of the President has categorically rejected online rumors suggesting that Masoud Pezeshkian has stepped down. The claims, sparked by a fabricated letter circulating on social media, were condemned as a calculated attempt to sow confusion and undermine public trust during a period of escalating regional conflict.

“The letter is entirely fake,” said the Director General of Public Relations at the president’s office. “President Pezeshkian remains fully committed to his duties and is actively leading the government through one of the most challenging chapters in recent history.”

Iran, currently grappling with what officials describe as an externally imposed war led by Israel and backed by the United States, has witnessed a surge in disinformation campaigns aimed at destabilizing the country from within. But insiders say the President has shown unwavering resolve, intensifying efforts to manage domestic affairs and bolster national defense.

Since taking office, Pezeshkian has emphasized unity and service delivery, launching what aides describe as a “round-the-clock mission” to address economic grievances and reinforce Iran’s institutions. Rather than retreating in the face of foreign pressure, the President is said to be reinforcing his leadership — backing the armed forces and mobilizing national resilience.

“This moment requires clarity, courage, and continuity,” the official added. “President Pezeshkian is not only staying — he’s leading with renewed conviction.”
