We need ‘reformist’ president, Rouhani tells Iran
JEDDAH: Former President Hassan Rouhani on Wednesday urged Iranians to vote for the only “reformist” candidate in Friday’s snap presidential election to replace the late Ebrahim Raisi. Masoud Pezeshkian could “remove the shadow of sanctions” that have battered the Iranian economy, Rouhani said, praising Pezeshkian’s “honesty and loyalty.” Other leading “reformist” figures such as former President Mohammad Khatami and former Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif have also endorsed Pezeshkian’s candidacy. The vote on Friday was an opportunity for change, Khatami said.
