Dissent is growing in Iran over a potential deal with the US, with hardliners criticizing the reported terms of the agreement. The deal, which could be signed as early as Sunday, has been met with opposition from factions within the Iranian government.

Opposition from Hardliners

One prominent hardliner, Mahmoud Nabavian, has spoken out against the deal, saying it would effectively make Iran a colony of the US. He also expressed concerns that the agreement would limit Iran’s ability to enrich uranium, even for peaceful purposes such as producing medicine or electricity.

The opposition to the deal is not limited to hardliners, with some Iranians taking to the streets to protest the agreement. The protests have been organized by the Endurance Front, a fringe faction that views itself as a guardian of the values of the 1979 revolution.

Regime Control

Despite the growing opposition, the Iranian regime is likely to have the final say on the deal. The supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, has called for unity and warned against dissent, and the government has taken steps to suppress opposition to the agreement.

The deal, if signed, would mark a significant shift in relations between the US and Iran. However, it is unclear whether the agreement will be able to overcome the opposition from hardliners and other factions within the Iranian government.
