Following Zarif's leaked audio file, we can put to bed the myth of "moderates" in #Iran under the mullahs' regime.
It is now crystal clear that Zarif was at Soleimani's service and the Revolutionary Guards dictate the regime's foreign policy.

In the last 42 years, the regime in #Iran has always tried to play the card of “reformist-principalists” as a way to put up a façade of democracy toward the international community. https://english.mojahedin.org/i/javad-zarif-remarks-irgc-foreign-policy-20210429

Another perspective into the Zarif tape leak:
Hardline political dominance is ingrained in the structure of the regime ruling #Iran. Within that structure, the only function of "reformists" is to deceive the world into believing it could be otherwise. https://www.ncr-iran.org/en/news/terrorism-a-fundamentalism/iran-zarif-promotes-false-narrative-of-competing-factions-in-irans-regime/

Zarif’s recent remarks are quite telling:
The regime’s “ambassadors and Foreign Ministry have a security structure; the Foreign Ministry’s agenda has been political – security from the beginning.” https://www.ncr-iran.org/en/ncri-statements/terrorism-fundamentalism/rouhani-acknowledges-the-role-of-the-supreme-national-security-council-snsc-in-terrorism-crimes-and-warmongering/

Assadollah Assadi, a senior Iranian diplomat in Vienna with ties to Iran’s security apparatus, was arrested in Germany back in 2018 for his direct role in a bomb-plot targeting an opposition rally.
Yes, a senior Iranian diplomat in Zarif’s ministry.

The regime’s embassies in Europe are literally used to plan attacks on dissidents.
Albania expelled Iran’s ambassador and another diplomat for “damaging its national security”, the foreign ministry said in December 2018. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-albania-iran-expulsion-idUSKCN1OI2R7

Zarif lied about Iran’s deliberate downing of the Ukrainian civilian airliner #PS752 with two surface-to-air missiles.
He defended the actions of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) & the Supreme Leader despite their horrific murdering of 176 people.

Baiedinejad, Iran’s former ambassador to the UK, followed his boss’ footsteps in whitewashing the regime’s crimes.
He lied about regime authorities bulldozing evidence at the crash site of the Ukrainian Int'l Airlines flight #PS752.

@TOLOnews asked Zarif:
Does Taliban have [bases] in your country?
-I don't know.
But it is your country?!
Zarif:
-Taliban is part of Afghanistan's future.
-We don't send anyone to Syria.
But you sent 25,000 Afghans, facilitated them & provided arms.

Zarif claims Qassem Soleimani fought to destroy ISIS.
That is another lie.
Mahmoud Chaharbaqi, a senior IRGC official, told #Iran state-run TV on January 2 that Soleimani's sole mission in Syria was to "keep Assad in power".

On his last visit to Baghdad, Zarif’s his first order of business was paying respects to Qassem Soleimani, the world's number one terrorist.
And yet MSM parrot Tehran's talking points & describe Zarif as a "moderate."

Listen to how Zarif literally threatened Europe.
Shame on those who cowardly continue to appease the mullahs' regime ruling #Iran & consider Zarif a “moderate”.

While Zarif claims to be a "human rights professor," this from 2006 in Columbia University about the Holocaust is quite interesting.
A known tactic of Iranian regime officials is to answer tough questions with a question of their own.

"Zarif is a man w/o much power. The real FM of #Iran is Qassem Soleimani... I pay a lot more attention to what Soleimani does than what Zarif says. If you want to judge this regime, pay attention to the IRGC & don't pay a lot of attention to Zarif."
