Abstract

In 2022-2023 The Islamic Republic of Iran has faced a number of serious challenges to its very existence - in the economic, social and political planes, in the external and internal arena. We are talking about large-scale protests, the effect of economic sanctions, the deterioration of Iranian-Azerbaijani relations, and attempts by the West and Israel to put pressure on Iran (including direct military actions) in the context of its position on the Russian special operation in Ukraine. Nevertheless, not only is Iran not showing signs of collapse, but it is also rapidly developing in a number of areas and strengthening its military-political security and subjectivity.
