![]() 234 Yesterday, 20:46 Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has selected three possible candidates to succeed him, The New York Times reported, citing sources. The names of Khamenei's potential successors have not been made public, but it is known that Khamenei's son, Mojtaba, who is considered the main contender for the position of spiritual leader, is not included in this list.
