Iran's Shia clerics don't have an exact timeline for the selection of the Islamic Republic's new supreme leader, according to a member of the body of religious experts that will make the appointment, who was quoted by Iranian state news agency IRNA.

Seyed Mojtaba Hosseini said the Assembly of Experts would convene "as soon as possible" and announce its final decision, but the cleric added that the matter requires "an examination of overall conditions and further consultations."

The new leader will be announced at the earliest opportunity, said another member of the assembly, Seyyed Ahmad Khatami, who added that no problem had arisen regarding the leadership, according to government-linked news agency ISNA.
