The comments about how the military is in sole control of matters of diplomacy, and that the Supreme Leader is no longer using advisors and intermediaries.
There as definitely been more direct communication between the leader and the military, but I wouldn’t go so far as to say that intermediaries and advisors are no longer a thing. Also, the government still has quite a say on matters of diplomacy, it’s just that the IRGC and military are now exerting more control over the situation due to the war.
