Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei officially confirmed the creation of a specialized security team. He stated that the six-member SNSC committee demonstrates structural coherence within the national leadership. This central committee directly manages all strategic aspects of the ongoing sensitive negotiations with the United States. Iranian officials designed this centralized mechanism to streamline all critical high-level foreign policy decisions effectively.
Baghaei specifically confirmed Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi as an active member of this committee. The foreign minister’s participation confirms complete alignment between diplomatic representatives and the overall national security strategy. President Masoud Pezeshkian previously revealed that this specialized team holds full authority to execute the strategy. Executive agencies will implement all negotiated decisions directly through this coordinated six-member administrative structure.
Official media outlets previously published varying reports concerning the exact membership of this council. Confirmed members include the president, parliament speaker, and secretary of the National Security Council. Top military commanders from the armed forces and the Revolutionary Guards also sit on this board. Baghaei’s latest statement resolves previous public uncertainty regarding the final diplomat serving on this committee.
Political observers regard this structural consolidation as a significant step toward unified strategic decision-making. Establishing a single authoritative body prevents conflicting diplomatic messages during high-stakes international talks with Washington. This close coordination between military leaders and foreign diplomats significantly strengthens Iran’s strategic bargaining position. The future trajectory of diplomatic talks will now depend entirely on this specialized council’s guidance.
